Region, Nation, "Heartland": Uttar Pradesh in India's Body Politic"This book interrogates Uttar Pradesh's identity as India's "heartland" and unravels the historical processes that have shaped this region. In looking at this constructed identity of the state it argues that UP's existence as a "region" cannot be taken uncritically as a given, considering the complex and divergent traditions that have been constituent of the state."--BOOK JACKET. |
