The contributors state that societies create 'others' through deliberate acts of selection over a period of time. The objective of the process of othering is to deny rights and privileges that one sets for one's own group. This volume affirms that central to the understanding of violence in any society is the understanding of othering processes. Violence and nonviolence are influenced by the nature of othering processes as well as the kinds of others in a society. Groups engaged in mutual othering are also the ones that are often involved in violent relationships. Renowned scholars from diverse fields provide multidisciplinary perspectives on violence and othering, discussing the concepts of violence and nonviolence in multicultural societies, communal harmony, constructions of the other, truth commissions, state censorship of 'sensitive' issues, fundamentalism and secularism in multifaith societies, and specific cases from recent violence-prone areas. This volume focuses on the South Asian, and more specifically, the Indian context, but is relevant for researchers seeking to understand these issues anywhere in the world."--$$cProvided by publisher. 000752218 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed October 27, 2015). 000752218 650_0 $$aViolence$$zIndia. 000752218 650_0 $$aMulticulturalism$$zIndia. 000752218 650_0 $$aEthnic conflict$$zIndia. 000752218 651_0 $$aIndia$$xEthnic relations. 000752218 7001_ $$aTripathi, Rama Charan,$$eeditor. 000752218 7001_ $$aSingh, Purnima,$$eeditor. 000752218 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9788132226123$$w(OCoLC)913557375 000752218 852__ $$bebk 000752218 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-81-322-2613-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000752218 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:752218$$pGLOBAL_SET 000752218 980__ $$aEBOOK 000752218 980__ $$aBIB 000752218 982__ $$aEbook 000752218 983__ $$aOnline 000752218 994__ $$a92$$bISE
