The RSS: And the Making of the Deep Nation
by Dinesh Narayanan Paperback April 13, 2025
Since its inception in 1925, the RSS has perplexed observers with
its organizational skills, military discipline and single-minded
quest for influence in all walks of Indian life. Often seen as
insidious and banned thrice, the pace of its growth and ideological
dominance of the political landscape in the second decade of the
millennium have been remarkable. It believes that Hindus have
exclusive ownership of the Indian nation or Bharat, as it prefers to
call it, and that hitherto, forces inimical to the interests of
Hindus were deciding the socio-political and economic agenda in
India. With political power firmly in favor, it is now going all out
to embed its ideology deep in India's genetic code. The abrogation
of Article 370 in Kashmir, the big push to construct a Ram Temple in
Ayodhya and moves to amend personal laws are the first symbolic
steps in establishing the primacy of Hindus in the affairs of the
country.
Relying on original research, interviews with insiders and analysis
of current events, The RSS and the Making of the
Deep Nation traces the RSS's roots and nearly century-long
operations in the relentless pursuit for ideological dominance in a
nation known for its rich diversity of thought, custom and ritual.

The Idea of India: A Dialogue (History for
Peace) by Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak
Romila Thapar Hardcover August 6, 2024
Through a stimulating dialogue, two old friends trace the history
of the idea of India through digressions, anecdotes, and
observations. Historian Romila Thapar and theorist Gayatri
Chakravorty Spivak reflect on the challenges posed by essentialism
and exclusion whenever cultures attempt to define and assert
themselves. They also emphasize the role of education in fostering
a more inclusive and accurate understanding of the nation’s
complex history. Their conversation revolves around the narratives
that have shaped Indian identity—from Vedic times to the
present—and those whose voices and visions for this land remain
unheard and unseen.

India vs. RSS by
Pinarayi Vijayan Paperback
[Y]our threats are not going to intimidate me. Then why make such
unnecessary statements?' – Pinarayi Vijayan, to the Rashtriya
Swayamsevak Sangh//The RSS feed on fear. Fighting them requires
depriving them of it. Pinarayi Vijayan, Chief Minister of Kerela,
was born in Kannur, ground zero of RSS terror. He has seen the
worst that they have to offer. And he's not afraid. At a time when
democracy is in danger, with an organization bent on dismantling
the secular tradition of India holding the reins of power at the
centre and in many states, Vijayan's bold pronouncements
challenging the BJP-RSS combine have a comforting quality. They
remind us of the spectre in our midst – dividing people,
suppressing women, stifling dissent, while slyly doing the biding
of the neoliberal elite. More importantly, they reassure those on
the left that all is not lost. The battle for a secular and
democratic India, against a sectarian and totalitarian RSS, is
winnable. Pinarayi Vijayan is proof of that.
