Overview of India's 2014 Elections: A Modi-led BJP Sweep Book

India is now governed by a strong Modi-led majority party. A peaceful transference of power in terms of parties and structure as a consequence of India's 16th national election highlights a notable degree of political maturity. The replacement of the Congress-led coalition after 10 years with a Bharatiya Janata Party clear majority is one obvious result of what can be considered a historic election.As a consequence of the 2014 elections, the emergence of a strong leader and a strong party coupled with continuing regionalism may provide a version of the state-nation system. It remains to be seen to what extent the new political structure coupled with India's diversity will shape society, politics and governance during the next five years. Rich in empirical and quantitative data, this volume, along with the four previous volumes, comprise the best set of national- and state-level studies for understanding India's politics in depth.Table of Contents:List of TablesList of FiguresList of AbbreviationsPrefaceI: Thematic StudiesIntroduction: Single Party and Strong Leadership Paul WallaceThe Resistance of Regionalism: BJP's Limitations and the Resilience of State Parties Christophe Jaffrelot and Gilles VerniersThe Bharatiya Janata Party: A Victory for Narendra Modi Walter K AndersenGender Narratives and Elections: Mandate for Safety, Development or Rights?
