The Palgrave Handbook of New Directions in Kashmir Studies provides
a comprehensive, interdisciplinary and transregional perspective on
the Kashmir dispute. Spanning South and Central Asia, Kashmir has
been at the center of geopolitical conflicts and rivalries among
India, Pakistan and China for decades, with members of
heterogeneous local communities negotiating the complexities of
regional state formations, national power assertions and
geopolitical competitions. Taken together, the chapters in this
handbook examine diverse people’s struggles to establish
processes of democratic accountability in relation to the
colonial-era state consolidations, postcolonial military
occupations, interstate wars, intrastate armed conflicts and cold
war and post-cold war politics that have shaped and transformed
social and political identities in the region. Contributors chart
out varied and bold new directions by attending to local
constellations of situated knowledges and practices through which
people living in different parts of the disputed region make sense
of the conditions and contingencies of their political lives. The
handbook further initiates a dialogue on the ways in which state
power and border regimes have shaped scholarship and undermined the
pursuit of shared intellectual and political projects across
physical and epistemological boundaries.
