Formatted contents note Description:<br/>In (19582014) was an eminent historian of South Indian politics, caste, culture, and cinema. His writings offer distinctively Tamil insights on these areas. In this book his chief focus is Tamil political culture for roughly thirty years since 1985. His success lies in bringing a historical understanding to bear on what he called the strangeness of Tamil Nadu. a key figure in pandians thinking was e.V. Ramasamy Periyar. pandian argues that periyars ideals and strategies long remained popular among Tamil progressives, but that their survival became difficult because of radical changes in pan-indian political culture. To show these changes, this book is organised chronologically as well as along thematic sections that reflect the themes of periyars Dravidian ideology: linguistic identity, state politics, religion, and caste. Periyars ideas, pandian argues, can still provide productive standards for critical analysis of politics in India. But because they are not widely known or appreciated outside Tamil Nadu, they represent the strangeness of Tamil politics instead of being adapted as progressive in the country as a whole.
