  13 July, by siawi3

  With the adoption of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) on 12 December, 2019, a faith based criteria for Indian citizenship was introduced for the first time in the history of the Indian republic. The legislation was opposed by many state governments who declared that they would stall the National Register of Citizens (NRC) and National Population Register (NPR) exercise; two processes that were linked to the CAA.

• The Dialogue That Never Was: Marx vs Nietzsche on Religion

  The perplexing phenomenon, throughout the twentieth century and into the twenty-?rst, of God freely shifting alliances and crossing over to the side of the working class and of colonized “Third World” nations, against Western, secular, market-pantheism, as shown by his support for such diverse movements as those inspired by liberation theology in Africa and Latin America, or by the (indeed quite disparate) theologies of what is generally known as “Islamic fundamentalism.” God nowadays — as borne out perhaps most tellingly by the events of September 11, 2001 — ?ghts on both sides of the “clash-of-civilizations” divide.
