Lamakaan is conducting an Election Series of lecture on 11 (2pm to 5:30pm) and 12 Jan (11am to 4pm).
This 3-part lecture is on Hindutva And Other Fundamentalisms: Fault-lines Of Indian Democracy. Biju Mathew, the speaker, will also hold a discussion.
The session will dig into the 1920s origins of Hindutva, its founding influences and its role in the nationalist movement, followed by a brief outline of its withering in the immediate post-Independence era. The lectures will then track the re-emergence of the Hindutva movement in post-Emergency India, and argue for the political economic and cultural crisis that marks its most recent re-emergence.
The lecture by Biju will be majorly in English, but participants can take up discussions in English, Urdu, Hindi and Telugu too.
