Mafia Raj
Book 26 of 33: South Asia in MotionLanguage: English
Published by Stanford University Press, US, 2018
ISBN 10: 1503607313 ISBN 13: 9781503607316
Paperback. Condition: New. "Mafia" has become an indigenous South Asian term. Like Italian mobsters, the South Asian "gangster politicians" are known for inflicting brutal violence while simultaneously upholding vigilante justice-inspiring fear and fantasy. But the term also refers to the diffuse spheres of crime, business, and politics operating within a shadow world that is popularly referred to as the rule of the mafia, or "Mafia Raj." Through intimate stories of the lives of powerful and aspiring bosses in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, this book illustrates their personal struggles for sovereignty as they climb the ladder of success. Ethnographically tracing the particularities of the South Asian case, the authors theorize what they call "the art of bossing," providing nuanced ideas about crime, corruption, and the lure of the strongman across the world.

Ships from United Kingdom to U.S.A.Quantity: 3 available
Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: New. xii, 251 pages, colour illustrations : 23 cm. Whether spurred by religious images or history books, hardly a day goes by in South Asia without an accusation of blasphemy. What accounts for the sharp rise in religious offense, and why it is observable across religious and political differences? An interdisciplinary study of this trend, Outrage brings together researchers in anthropology, religious studies, and South Asian studies with rich experience in the varied ways religion and politics intersect in this region. Each chapter focuses on a recent case of alleged blasphemy or desecration in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Myanmar, unpacking the religious sensitivities and political concerns. Collectively, the chapters explore common denominators across national and religious differences, such as the introduction of social media and smartphones, the possible political gains of initiating blasphemy accusations, and the growing self-assertion of marginal communities.

Mafia Raj: The Rule of Bosses in South Asia
Published by Speaking Tiger, 2024
ISBN 10: 9354476198 ISBN 13: 9789354476198
Soft cover. Condition: New. Mafia has become an indigenous term in the Indian subcontinent. Like Italian mobsters, the South Asian gangster politicians and violent entrepreneurs are known for inflicting brutal violence while simultaneously upholding vigilante justice inspiring fear and fantasy. But the term also refers to the diffuse spheres of crime, business and politics operating within a shadow world that is popularly referred to as the rule of the mafia, or Mafia Raj . Through intimate stories of the lives of powerful and aspiring bosses in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh a rookie neta from Dhaka, a selfstyled leader of the poor in Punjab, a henchman from Chittoor, smalltime brokers in Lahore, a female don in western UP, a political bigshot in Nawabganj, and a legendary figure in the bloodridden politics of South India this book illustrates their personal struggles for sovereignty on their move up the ladder of success. Ethnographically tracing the distinctive cultural milieu that such stories emerge from, the authors theorize what they call the art of bossing , providing nuanced ideas about crime, corruption and the lure of the strongman across the world.

South Asian Sovereignty: The Conundrum of Worldly Power (Exploring the Political in South Asia)

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
First Edition

Ships from United Kingdom to U.S.A.Quantity: 1 available
Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Summary:This book brings ethnographies of everyday power and ritual into dialogue with intellectual studies of theology and political theory. It underscores the importance of academic collaboration between scholars of religion, anthropology, and history in uncovering the structures of thinking and action that make politics work. The volume weaves important discussions around sovereignty in modern South Asian history with debates elsewhere on the world map. South Asia's colonial history - especially India's twentieth-century emergence as the world's largest democracy - has made the subcontinent a critical arena for thinking about how transformations and continuities in conceptions of sovereignty provide a vital frame for tracking shifts in political order. The chapters deal with themes such as sovereignty, kingship, democracy, governance, reason, people, nation, colonialism, rule of law, courts, autonomy, and authority, especially within the context of India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. The book will be of great interest to scholars and researchers in politics, ideology, religion, sociology, history, and political culture, as well as the informed reader interested in South Asian studies.
