This book addresses the question of conversion in India and its relationship to religious freedom by examining how this relationship is expressed in the discourses of law (Freedom of Religion Acts), anti-conversion campaigns, popular cultural texts, in the language of those who convert, and in secularist and human rights statements. Some key questions that the book raises are: Are the discourses of religious freedom as they have been currently formulated internationally adequate to the task of protecting it in the Indian context? Is there a different way of thinking about religious freedom which will enable a more just approach to religious difference? This book will make a contribution to the fields of postcolonial studies, cultural studies, law, and religious studies.
