The lasting impact of colonial trauma in India: Links to Hindu nationalism

Hindu supremacist ideology and Hindu nationalism are recently resurgent in India's far-right government. This ideology has manifested itself in increased religious intolerance and human rights violations, including escalating oppression of religious and other minorities, journalists, civil rights advocates, and others. Using psychoanalytic theories of social trauma, groups, and prejudice, I link present-day disturbances to the profound social trauma engendered by the colonial occupation of India by the British in multiple forms for nearly 200 years.
