The demolition of the Babri Mosque at Ayodhya on 6th December 1992 was as an event as important as it was unexpected. In this book nine scholars (Theodore P.Wright Jr., John J.Carroll, Matthew A.Cook, Dhirendra K.Vajpeyi, Subhas C.Kashyar, Steven A.Hoffmann, Srinivas Tilak, Koenraad Elst and Vasudha Narayanan) explore the significance of this action for the Hindu and Muslim communities in India, especially the relations between them.
