This book speaks to debates in law, constitutionalism, and the making of political identity in modern India. It demonstrates the way the Constitution of independent India draws on and entrenches colonial and communal forms of identifying the Indian people. In turn this undermines the liberal aspirations of the Indian Constitution.
