| Résumé: | The author seeks to provide a political preface to the recovery of a well-known domain of public concern in South Asia, ethnic and especially religious tolerance, from the hegemonic language of secularism popularized by westernized intellectuals and middle classes exposed to the globally dominant language of the nation-state in this part of the world. This language increasingly has become a cover for the complicity of modern intellectuals and the moderizing middle classes of South Asia in the new forms of religious violence. (Internat. Pol.
