Descrizione The Good Parsi
During the Raj, one group stands out as having prospered because of British rule: the Parsis. The Zoroastrian people adopted the manners, dress, and aspirations of their British colonizers, and were rewarded with high-level financial, mercantile, and bureaucratic posts. Indian independence, however, ushered in their decline. Tanya Luhrmann's analysis of the Parsis brings startling insights to a wide range of communal and individual identity crises and what could be called "identity politics" of this century.
