Recenzii

"[N]o public or university library must be without this book. It presents balanced, impartial and unbiased analyses by academics of the first order." - Reginald Massey; Confluence (www.confluence.org.uk), August 2011
"[T]his book is a rich source of useful information and an excellent analysis of the role of religion in politics in the context of South and South East Asia. It has been very competently edited by a scholar who has deep insight into the politics of this region. I recommend this book as a milestone of research on South Asia to scholars of this region as well as the lay reader." - Tariq Rahman; Newsline Magazine, February 2012
"[A] timely addition to debates on secularism and the space and place for religion in politics and public sphere in two regions of Asia where the medium of religion has always been a significant one for politics... Ishtiaq Ahmed has succeeded in highlighting that the rise of religion in politics and public affairs is inconsistent with rights and dignity that plurality offers to humanity. The volume succinctly brings out that the use of religion by any section of the political universe could lead to the use of the religious medium and language by most, if not all." - Ajay K. Mehra; Mainstream Weekly, Vol L No 12, March 10, 2012
