  • E-Digest on Ambedkar's Appropriation by Hindutva Ideology
    Ambedkar’s Appropriation by Hindutva Ideology An E-Digest Compiled by Ram Puniyani (For Private Circulation) Center for Study of Society and Secularism & All India Secular Forum 602 & 603, New Silver Star, Behind BEST Bus Depot, Santacruz (E), Mumbai: - 400 055. E-mail: [email protected], www.csss-isla.com Page | 1 E-Digest - Ambedkar’s Appropriation by Hindutva Ideology Preface Many a debates are raging in various circles related to Ambedkar’s ideology. On one hand the RSS combine has been very active to prove that RSS ideology is close to Ambedkar’s ideology. In this direction RSS mouth pieces Organizer (English) and Panchjanya (Hindi) brought out special supplements on the occasion of anniversary of Ambedkar, praising him. This is very surprising as RSS is for Hindu nation while Ambedkar has pointed out that Hindu Raj will be the biggest calamity for dalits. The second debate is about Ambedkar-Gandhi. This came to forefront with Arundhati Roy’s introduction to Ambedkar’s ‘Annihilation of Caste’ published by Navayana. In her introduction ‘Doctor and the Saint’ Roy is critical of Gandhi’s various ideas. This digest brings together some of the essays and articles by various scholars-activists on the theme. Hope this will help us clarify the underlying issues.

  • Islam, Muslims, and the Coloniality of Being: Reframing the Debate on Race and Religion in Modernity
    Islam, Muslims, and the Coloniality of Being: Reframing the Debate on Race and Religion in Modernity Iskander Abbasi [email protected] I think (others do not think, or do not think properly), therefore I am (others are-not, lack being, should not exist or are dispensable) (Maldonado-Torres 2007:252) Abstract This article aims to more thoroughly intersect the figure of the Muslim into the framework of the coloniality of being, and into the narrative of race and religion in modernity. Two areas of concern are investigated: First, how Islamophobia aided in forming the coloniality of being in ways that decolo- nial scholarship – namely that of leading Latin American decolonial thinker, Nelson Maldonado-Torres – is seemingly unaware of or downplays, and second, how a rereading of a number of the key events and figures that define a decolonial discourse on race and religion, such as the Valladolid debates (1550-1551) and the figure of Christopher Columbus, help to more rigorously conceptualize the figure of the Muslim in relation to the coloniality of being. Keywords: Coloniality, decoloniality, Islam, Muslims, Islamophobia, onto- logy, critical Muslim studies, race, religion, modernity Introduction In his article, On the coloniality of being, Latin American decolonial thinker, Nelson Maldonado-Torres develops a framework for analyzing racial figures in modernity who have experienced what he describes as the darker side of being (Maldonado-Torres 2007:244). Maldonado-Torres theorizes a concept Journal for the Study of Religion 33, 2 (2020) 1 of 31 pages Online ISSN 2413-3027; DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2413-3027/2020/v33n2a4 Iskander Abbasi of ontology for racialized peoples in modernity that shows that there are those without ontology or, as he argues, they exist as non-beings and sub-human ‘Others’ who dwell in a ‘zone of nonbeing’ (Maldonado-Torres 2007:254).

CEU eTD Collection Indigenist mobilization: ‘Identity’ versus ‘class’ after the Kerala model of development? i Abstract ABSTRACT This thesis analyses the recent rise of "adivasi" (indigenous/tribal) identity politics in the South Indian state of Kerala. It discusses the complex historical baggage and the political risks attached to the notion of "indigeneity" in Kerala and poses the question why despite its draw- backs, a notion of indigenous belonging came to replace the discourse of class as the primary framework through which adivasi workers now struggle for their rights. The thesis answers this question through an analysis of two inter-linked processes: firstly, the cyclical social movement dynamics of increasing disillusionment with - and distantiation from - the class-based platforms that led earlier struggles for emancipation but could not, once in government, structurally alter existing relations of power.
