On the seventieth anniversary of Indian independence, Partition,
and the creation of Pakistan, this ground breaking collection
brings together fourteen cutting-edge scholarly essays on multiple
aspects of both the region and the issue of Kashmir. While keeping
the political dimensions of the dispute over the territory in
focus, these innovative essays branch out from the high politics of
the conflict to consider less well-known aspects and areas of
Kashmir. They examine the continuities and ruptures between
Kashmir's past and its present situation; reevaluate the
contemporary political scenario from the perspective of gender,
economic and political marginality, everyday experiences, and
governance; and analyze the ways in which the region of Kashmir and
its people are represented and (re)present themselves in films and
literature through their regional and religious identities, and
commodities. This volume aims to understand the limitations of
postcolonial nationalism and citizenship as exemplified by the
situation in contemporary Kashmir.
