João Pedro Oliveira's Hindutopia Concept Explained

João Pedro Oliveira introduces the term 'Hindutopia' to critique how modern scholars label Hindu mythology. This term, created in a 2025 paper, combines 'Hindu' and 'utopia' to reflect the aspirations of India's new middle class after 1991. He argues that these new labels are just a modern twist on neo-Orientalism, swapping old terms while keeping the same ideas.
