The India Power Atlas

Abstract

This book measures the distribution of power in contemporary India across 40 arenas, from religious demography, organised society, money, knowledge and the media to elections, the instruments of the State and external actors. In each arena it estimates the share held by actors aligned with Hindutva against all others, from 16,303 sourced research rows and 10,089 money flows. On the baseline, Hindutva-aligned actors hold 45.7 of every 100 points of power; without office at the Union and in the states, 36.7.
