''The Indian Ideology'' is a 2012 book by the British Marxist historian Perry Anderson, published by Three Essays Collective. A near-polemical critique of the modern Indian nation-building project, the book consists of three essays originally published in the ''London Review of Books'' (''LRB'') in July–August 2012.
