Abstract: A former member of the Communist Party of India (Marxist), Aditya Nigam is one of India’s well-known public intellectuals. In this interview, Urs Lindner asks him about the current state of Indian Marxism, the contemporary relevance of Althusser and M. N. Roy, the intricacies of the Maoist movement in India and how to get rid of Eurocentric conceptions of modernity. Regarding the latter, Nigam in particular elaborates on questions of popular politics, secularism and environmentalism in India.
