Dr Christophe Jaffrelot is Research Director at the CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) and teaches South Asian politics and history at Sciences Po (Paris). From 2000-8, he was Director of CERI (Centre d'Etudes et de Recherches Internationales) at Sciences Po. Arguably one of the world's most respected writers on Indian society and politics, his publications include The Hindu Nationalist Movement and Indian Politics, 1925 to the 1990s, India's Silent Revolution: The Rise of the Lower Castes in North India, and Dr Ambedkar and Untouchability: Analysing and Fighting Caste, all of which are published by Hurst.
'Christophe Jaffrelot has for some fifteen years been a major
research scholar working first on Hindu nationalist politics, and
more recently on low caste politics in India... this book should
prove to be a popular and useful resource for researchers and
students interested in exploring his work.'
*Dr John Zavos, University of Manchester*
