Plural Traditions in Punjab

Catalog description

Taught by GTU. Engaged coexistence between people of diverse commitments poses great challenge to religious leadership in the twenty-first century. In this seminar-style course, students will examine exciting new scholarship about the history of religious diversity in the Punjab region, a crossroads between India and Pakistan, Central and South Asia. In addition to learning how Hindus, Muslims, Christians, and Sikhs have interacted from pre-colonial to present times, students will be challenged to translate their learning for applied use.
