Sikh Sovereignty
Author: Harkirat Kaur Mundi
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Sikh nationalism
Languages : en
Pages : 25
Book Description
Sikh sovereignty is analyzed first within Sikh traditions and scriptures, and second within the theoretical framework of subaltern studies and nationalism. It is argued that Sikh sovereignty has roots in Sikh principles such as miri-piri, sant-sipahi, and patishahi and the physical structure of the Akal Takhat. Guru Nanak Dev Ji put these principles into action in the 15th century to guide Sikh sovereignty, which flourished under the subsequent nine Gurus, ending with Guru Granth Sahib Ji as a guide in contemporary society. In some respects, Sikhs in present-day India are subalterns whose interests are ignored because of a rise in religious Hindu nationalism. In the fight for postcolonial independence, Sikh interests, including the right to key elements of sovereignty such as freedom of speech and self-determination and a demarcated land, were originally recognized but ultimately neglected once India became an established postcolonial nation. Khalistan, an independent and autonomous Sikh state, is thus rooted in Sikhi but driven by nationalism and anti-colonial sentiments. It ensures Sikh representation in the modern world where they are not fully incorporated or where their actions on behalf of better representation are criminalized, as with Hindu hegemony in India. The idea of Khalistan, conceived as a sovereign space for Sikhs separate from India, raises the question of pluralism. However, it is fundamentally part of the battle for sovereignty, and social, political, and economic representation that has existed from the formation of Sikhi, which has included resistance to oppressive regimes through the creation of the Akal Takhat under the Mughal Empire in the 15th through 18th century, and the launch of Punjabi newspapers dedicated to Sikhi under the British Raj in the 19th and 20th centuries.

The Oxford Handbook of Sikh Studies
Author: Pashaura Singh
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191004111
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 673
Book Description
The Oxford Handbook of Sikh Studies innovatively combines the ways in which scholars from fields as diverse as philosophy, psychology, religious studies, literary studies, history, sociology, anthropology, political science, and economics have integrated the study of Sikhism within a wide range of critical and postcolonial perspectives on the nature of religion, violence, gender, ethno-nationalism, and revisionist historiography. A number of essays within this collection also provide a more practical dimension, written by artists and practitioners of the tradition. The handbook is divided into eight thematic sections that explore different 'expressions' of Sikhism. Historical, literary, ideological, institutional, and artistic expressions are considered in turn, followed by discussion of Sikhs in the Diaspora, and of caste and gender in the Panth. Each section begins with an essay by a prominent scholar in the field, providing an overview of the topic. Further essays provide detail and further treat the fluid, multivocal nature of both the Sikh past and the present. The handbook concludes with a section considering future directions in Sikh Studies.
