This book makes a detailed study on the functioning of India’s democracy on the one hand, and the way India relates to the world on the other. For the former, it examines the Indian political culture where caste and religion, including Hindu nationalism and lower caste politics play a major role. Discussing the way India relates to the world, it takes a close look at India’s ties with the US, Russia and Europe, to analyse its status as an emerging world power.
