Abstract: [eng] Djallal G. HEUZÉ — Nationalized and internationalized Hinduism . Hinduism might be the set of religious practices and ideologies which endured the deepest evolution during the past thirty years. The process of change was the result of a long maturation made of reformism and reaction combined and com- plexely interacting. New phenomenas as the rise of unemployed youth, specific inferiority complexes and armed confrontations, helped to pave the way for a new kind of hinduism and hindu attitudes, nationalist, politicised, somewhat centralised and more and more simple. The contribution explains how the complex set of communal attitudes and history between hindus and muslims have helped to promote this evolution. It also introduces the major role played by the polemics about a small mosque of the Gangetic Plain. As it is finally argued, the process of internationalisation of hindu perspectives and organisations is related to its nationalisation.
