This book is one of the first in-depth and systematic studies on
the functioning and aspiring federations of South Asia. It examines
how federal dynamics in India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka are
impinged on by the nature of their specific constitutions; their
societal, political and cultural fabrics; composition of power
elites and ruling classes; structures of political economy and
market; electoral and party systems; mass media; and information
technology. The authors offer a comparative, analytical,
conceptual, and theoretical framework to understand patterns and
trends as also experiences of and possibilities for federalism in
South Asia. They highlight divergences and similarities, successes
and key challenges, while indicating federalism's wider regional
relevance in the discourse on democracy and governance. The book
concludes that the multicultural character of these societies -
beset with ethnic and regional conflicts, separatist and military
undercurrents - makes federal political solutions the only viable
route. Providing a wealth of material, this will deeply interest
scholars, students and teachers of comparative politics, political
science, federal studies, area studies as well as those interested
in political structures and processes in South Asia.
