More than a decade after the 2002 riots in Gujarat, this empirical typology sheds light on the diversity of Muslim civil society and Muslims in civil society. Muslim peace activists in post-conflict Gujarat experience the 'ambivalence of the sacred' as a personal dynamic; as faith-based actors, secular technocrats, emancipating women and doubting professionals, they struggle for a better future in diverse and sometimes surprising ways. By taking their diversity seriously, this book sharpens the distinction between ambivalence and ambiguity, and provides fresh perspectives on religion and politics in India today.
In his studies, teaching and research, he explores the various relations between politics, religion and belonging and between development and violent conflict in South Asia. He has published articles on Muslim peace activists in Gujarat and on India’s diplomacy vis-à-vis Bangladesh, and currently explores Muslim belonging and contemporary diversity in Lucknow, in affiliation with the Centre for the Study of Social Systems, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi.
