Homeland Insecurities BY Sanjay Barbora (9780192855329)

Description

This book engages with key political and social issues in Assam following the pacification of insurgencies in the 21st century. Keeping in mind the impact of counterinsurgency, migration, and conflicts arising out of demands for political and territorial autonomy, it focuses on the emerging issues that will play an important role in defining the future of social and political relations in Assam. Arguing that old conflicts have taken new forms, this book reflects critically on the dominant themes that animate academic research on the region—autonomy, migration, and conflict—and accentuates tentative peacebuilding efforts to show how there is a creative social world of solidarity that survives
