It examines the Emergency and its aftermath from diverse perspectives – political, historical, legal, economic, philosophical, experiential and cultural, among others. Bringing together leading scholars and writers, it explores how the Emergency transformed Indian polity, and shaped law enforcement and penal practices, the media, student movements, judicial responses, subaltern politics and literary expression, and examines why analysis of the Emergency is still relevant to political discourse in India today. *The Editors:* *Peter Ronald deSouza* is Senior Research Associate, African Centre for Epistemology and Philosophy of Science (ACEPS), University of Johannesburg, and Trustee of the Institute of Social Studies Trust. He was Director, Indian Institute of Advanced Study (IIAS), Shimla, for two terms (2007–13). *Harsh Sethi* worked as Consulting Editor of the monthly *Seminar* for two decades. Earlier he was with Sage Publications as Acquisitions Editor. He also held positions of Fellow at the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies, and Deputy Director at the Indian Council of Social Science Research. *The Series:* The series commemorates and celebrates texts, events and personalities that have shaped societies, cultures and communities in India. The volumes bring together personal narratives and scholarly explorations as they reconsider and reread histories and cultures. *Place your order here <http://mailer.orientblackswan.com/misc/pages/link/url:~ZnJlZEBieXRlc2ZvcmFsbC5vcmd+MTc1ODEwNjI1OH4xNTM1M180MjF+MjAyNTA5flQ@~https://orientblackswan.com/details?obsin=4138>* Contact us Orient Blackswan Pvt.
