Communalism
Monograph on the evolution of collective farming communitys and related forms of communism from prehistorical times to the early 1900's - examines the sociological aspects of different kinds of communes, particularly in Western Europe and the USA, etc.
Social Ecology and Communalism
A collection of essays by the late Murray Bookchin, the acclaimed writer and activist who spent most of his life working towards a better world. The basic premise of social ecology is to re-harmonise the balance between society and nature, to create a rational ecological society - aims that are increasingly vital and increasingly a part of the mainstream political discourse. This collection of essays give an overview and introduction to his ideas.
Indigenous Communalism
Indigenous Communalism is a study of community building in Native communities, and considers what models might be drawn from the strategies of Indigenous groups for post-colonial communalism and native self-determination in contemporary global society. Drawing on her ethnographic work among the Akimel O'odham and the Wiradjuri, Carolyn Smith-Morris shows how communal work and culture help these communities form distinctive indigenous bonds.
Communalism as Alternative
What defines Communalism? What distinguishes it from other radical ideologies? What social and political alternatives does it offer? "Communalism as Alternative" answers these questions: it presents a broad overview of this political ideology and suggests some ways it can be translated into practical politics.
Interrogating Communalism
This book examines conflict and violence among religious minorities and the implication on the idea of citizenship in contemporary India. Going beyond the usual Hindu-Muslim question, it situates communalism in the context of conflicts between Muslims and Christians. By tracing the long history of conflict between the Marakkayar Muslims and Mukkuvar Christians in South India, it explores the notion of ‘mobilization of religious identity’ within the discourse on communal violence in South Asia as also discusses the spatial dynamics in violent conflicts. Including rich empirical evidence from historical and ethnographic material, the author shows how the contours of violence among minorities position Muslims as more vulnerable subjects of violent conflicts. The book will be useful to scholars and researchers of politics, political sociology, sociology and social anthropology, minority studies and South Asian studies. It will also interest those working on peace and conflict, violence, ethnicity and identity as also activists and policymakers concerned with the problems of fishing communities.
