Description
Summary:Throughout its long history, Hindu traditions have continuously experienced periods of renewal and revisioning according to shifting historical and social contexts. The articulation of Hinduism by its adherents has been immensely underscored by Indian migration, ethnicity and issues of authenticity and identity. It is for these reasons this two-part special issue of Nidan focuses extensively on the themes of migration and identity in the Indian diaspora. Part one of this volume focuses primarily on Hinduism in North America, with attention also to the Caribbean.
