India that is Bharat: Coloniality, Civilisation, Constitution By J. Sai Deepak

A MONUMENTAL EXPLORATION OF CIVILIZATIONAL IDENTITY AND DECOLONIALITY.

India that is Bharat is the first installment of a profound and comprehensive trilogy that challenges the established narrative of Indian history and constitutional law. J. Sai Deepak masterfully investigates the influence of "colonial consciousness"—or coloniality—on the successor state of the Indic civilization.

Spanning from the "Age of Discovery" in 1492 to the enactment of the Government of India Act of 1919, this book traces how Western political theology and colonial structures have shaped the modern Indian state. The author critically examines universal constructs like "secularism," "toleration," and "humanism," revealing their roots in Christian political theology and their subsequent role in subverting indigenous Indic consciousness. With an ambitious scope that also explores the concept of "Middle Eastern coloniality," this work posits that 'decoloniality' is an urgent civilizational imperative across education, culture, language, and constitutionalism.

Why this book is a must-read:

• Intellectual Depth: A rigorous, scholarly examination that redefines how we understand the origins of the Indian Constitution and the colonial influence on our national consciousness.

• Civilizational Perspective: Provides a necessary framework for readers interested in reclaiming and liberating India’s distinctive indigeneity.

• A Call to Action: More than just a history book, it presents 'decoloniality' as a vital project for the future of the nation.

• Essential for Scholars & Enthusiasts: A cornerstone text for anyone engaged in the discourse regarding Indian history, political philosophy, and legal theory.
