Popis:	The author discusses the extent to which appeals to personalities and identities have given way to issues of development in campaigns in Indian electoral democracy. She reviews recent literature on the topic and includes results from her research to suggest that cultural nationalist appeals by politicians coincide in some instances with promises of better governance for development. Also, a focus on development by political elites does not exclude a continuing role for relations of patronage in rural localities.
