Debating the 'post' condition in India: critical vernaculars, unauthorised modernities, postcolonial contentions?

How was the post-modernist project contested, subverted and assimilated in India?

This book offers a personal account and an intellectual history of its reception and response.

Tracing independent India's engagement with Western critical theory, Paranjape outlines both its past and 'post'.

The book explores the discursive trajectories of post-modernism, post-colonialism, post-Marxism, post-nationalism, post-feminism, post-secularism - the relations that mediate them - as well as interprets, in the light of these discussions, core tenets of Indian philosophical thought.
