Wages of Violence: Naming and Identity in Postcolonial BombayPrinceton University Press, 18 նոյ, 2001 թ. - 269 էջ When Bombay changed its name to Mumbai in 1995, it was the culmination of a long process that transformed India's primary symbol of modernity and cultural diversity into a site of intense ethnic conflict and violent nationalism. Wages of Violence is a startling account of how the city's atmosphere, dominant public languages, and power structures have changed since the 1960s. |
