Back in 2014, the BJP had already won a simple majority in Lok Sabha(the lower house of parliament), bringing an end to more than 30 years of coalition government. Now, the BJP is exhibiting stronger presence as a one-party-rule at both federal and local levels, with no counter-balance from the Indian National Congress, local parties, or left wing parties now or in the foreseeable future. This increases the likelihood of Modi's re-election as prime minister in 2019. Obviously,Indian political development is characterized by complexity, accidental factors and intrinsic logic, which will definitely exert great influence on the future of India.展开更多

文摘2018年5月5日,由马克思纪念图书馆举办的“马克思诞辰200周年大型国际学术研讨会”在英国伦敦大学亚非学院召开。在“民粹民族主义”分论坛上,印度共产党(马克思主义)总书记西塔拉姆·亚秋里(Sitaram Yechury)作了题为《印度语境下的民粹民族主义》(Populist Nationalism:the Indian Context)的主题报告[1]。西塔拉姆·亚秋里总书记的主旨发言,立足于印度人民党在印度中央单独执政的社会政治环境,从民族主义的诞生、“印度理念”的演变和服务于国际金融资本的民族主义三方面,就印度民粹民族主义的兴起、民粹民族主义引发的社会乱象以及印度左翼政党的应对措施等议题展开了深入剖析。报告不仅为我们研究印度共产主义政党提供了宝贵的一手资料,同时也为我们深入开展印度国别研究提供了崭新的视角和必要的帮助。
