This essential second edition highlights the changes that contemporary India has undergone over the last five years or so, including the following:
• An analysis of the 2024 general elections, the resulting coalition government, and the charismatic rise of Prime Minister Modi, whose leadership has reshaped the political party system and consolidated his influence.
• A discussion of India’s debates on secularism and the nation’s search for a modern identity amid tensions between state power and democratic ideals.
• Insights into India’s growing global influence, its strained ties with Pakistan over the Kashmir region, and the impact of international conflicts on relations with Canada and the United States.
• An examination of India’s rise as the world’s fourth-largest economy, the challenges of rural development, and the effects of globalization.
• Reflections on the sustainability of India’s growth, the impact of the global pandemic, and the consequences of the climate crisis.
