Annotation
Analysing India during the first two decades following its foundation as a sovereign nation-state in 1947, this text explores how nationalists are turned into nationals, subjects into citizens, and the colonial state into a sovereign nation-state.
Examines the formation of the nation-state in postcolonial India, how it worked to create an identity for itself, to what extent it succeeded, and what may be the prospects for unity in a widely diverse country.
