520 | |a In his second monograph, Pentecostalism and Politics of Conversion in India, Sarbeswar Sahoo invites readers to explore the multifaceted and historically diverse issue of religious conversion in modern India. Sahoo is particularly interested in understanding and explaining the dramatic rise of anti-Christian violence in India. His introduction cites research findings published by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life that identifies India as a country with "very high social hostilities" toward Christians. Likewise, the 2016 annual report of the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) indicates that there is "tacit support" coupled with deliberate attempts to inflame communal tension on the part of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Sahoo seeks to contextualize a shift in the "master narrative of Indian politics in the postcolonial period." The colonial and early post-colonial focus on Hindu-Muslim communalism (violence directed toward a specific religious and/or ethnic group) has given way to a recent shift in the political discourse toward Hindu-Christian conflict. "A survey of the recent literature shows that almost nothing has been written about Hindu-Christian conflict in contemporary India". Sahoo seeks to fill this lacuna by contextualizing the rise of what some commentators have dubbed a form of modern Indian "Christianophobia." | ||
