The Oxford History of Hinduism: Modern Hinduism

The Oxford History of Hinduism: Modern Hinduism focuses on developments resulting from movements within the tradition as well as contact between India and the outside world through both colonialism and globalization. Divided into three parts, part one considers the historical background to modern conceptualizations of Hinduism. Moving away from the reforms of the 19th and early 20th century, part two includes five chapters each presenting key developments and changes in religious practice in modern Hinduism.

The last two chapters look at Hinduism outside India focusing on Hinduism in Nepal and the modern Hindu diaspora.
