Recenzje

'Revolutionary Pasts provides a deeply moving account of, and an important historical argument about, communism in India. Its insights resonate urgently with the present when, in India, every dissident is locked up on the grounds of being a dangerous communist - an “urban Naxal,” a “Maoist.” Without nostalgia, Revolutionary Pasts recovers radical lineages that are crucial for the future.' Ania Loomba, Pacific Affairs
