Mappila And Comrades: A Century of Communist-Muslim Relations in Kerala

This book seeks to examine how the Communist Movement of Kerala welcomed Mappilas and address Mappila issues and minority questions. Do the party claims about what it has done for these communities reflect their priorities? How does it change the fundamental values and ethics of the party? N P Chekkutty, an eminent journalist of Kerala, examines these questions. The complications of identity politics, Mappila revolts of 1921, Sharia Case, and the politics of Islamist Movements are other concerns of this book. This book gives insights into the major contemporary political documentation of the Mappilas.
