This book aims to answer these questions through an in-depth analysis of the Shiv Sena a party that has dominated the political scene in Maharashtra (and India) these past several years. The Shiv Sena has been traditionally characterised by its culture of direct action, militant images, and its charismatic and autocratic leader, Bal Thackeray. While examining the processes leading to the establishment of the Shiv Sena, Julia Eckert offers a refreshingly original perspective on the internal dynamics of the party, and other like-minded movements. She details its local mode of operation and its strategies of mobilization within a democratic set up. She studies the movement's need for creating opportunities for action, the role of militant enemy images, and the integration of diverse interests and motivations in the politics of struggle.

Paperback. Condition: New. In the context of the ever-increasing political problematization of migration in Europe, agencies charged with migrant administration create diverse categories of difference to distinguish between the »deserving migrant« and the illegal one: They assess the detainability or the credibility of asylum seekers, the danger posed by Islamic organizations, and make situational decisions that determine whether migration or labour law applies to individual agricultural workers.

Together, these ethnographic analyses reveal how migration policies in different European countries take shape in administrative practice.…
