INDIA AND THE CONCEPT OF
NATION-STATE |
|
It is doing the
same repopulation with Tibet. While China may have succeeded better than India in
maintaining the unity of a larger nation-state, it has succeeded only through the power of
brute force, which most Indians are not likely to emulate or want to see happen in their
country.
Islamic countries have also failed in producing any large nation-state like India, China
or the United states. The Islamic world consists of various small states like Iraq, Iran
or Saudi Arabia, Which are generally military dictatorships or medieval style monarchies,
often at war with one another. The only type of
larger state the Islamic world produced were religious empires, not states defined by a
geographical region or common culture. Islam has failed in producing any real secular
state or uniting any subcontinent into a country. |
