Définition(s)

  • At the end of the 20th century, the reinvention of Bhangra, a Panjabi harvest dance, as an ethnocultural signifier of South Asian identity for young British Asians offers an illuminating instance of the co-option of dance in the cultural politics of identity. The genealogy of Bhangra provides the historical context for the intersection of Sikh nationalism with regional chauvinism in shaping the identity politics of postindependence India.
