This new study looks at the crucial role played by audiovisual media in Hindu cultural nationalism. The application of new media technology in the context of the construction of 'Indianness' by Hindutva's main political wing, the Bharatiya Janata Party (Party of the Indian People, BJP), is a fascinating example of in-house indoctrination and emotive mobilization that demands critical attention.
Christiane Brosius teaches at Karl Ruprechts University, Heidelberg. She gained her PhD from Europe University Viadrina, Frankfurt, and has written articles and books on audiovisual media, iconography and nationalism in India.
