India is one of the world's great democratic success stories. In this rigorously empirical analysis, a comparative social scientist-an American sociologist based in Sydney-offers a dispassionate assessment of India's democratic evolution. Benchmarking India against both established Western democracies and its own political past, the book challenges prevailing narratives shaped by ideological biases. Drawing on quantitative data and primary historical sources, the author reveals a dynamic, complex, and resilient democratic system operating in a fractured and deeply traditional society. A must-read for academics and general readers alike, this book cuts through politicized scholarship to offer a clear-eyed perspective on the world's largest democracy.
Salvatore Babones is a quantitative comparative sociologist whose current research focuses on the political sociology of democracy.
