More about the book
The book delves into the complex dynamics of communal violence in India, particularly following the tragic events of February 2002 in Gujarat. Through an in-depth ethnographic study, it examines how the struggles of poorer citizens with state institutions enable political actors to instigate violence. The author uncovers the intricate relationships between various participants in the riots, including politicians, criminals, and local leaders, highlighting how their political positions influence their capacity and willingness to engage in violent acts.
