Landscapes of Fear tackles a set of intricate questions about the
workings of impunity in India. Considering why the world's largest
democracy condones systematic violations of some human rights, and
questioning how victims of abuse and survivors of sexual violence
end up being denied justice, the contributors seek to understand
what those on the margins--those of the wrong sex, wrong identity
markers, or wrong political leanings--can tell us about violence by
state and non-state actors. Bringing together senior academics,
civil society leaders, and fresh voices from across the
subcontinent, Landscapes of Fear offers analysis--contextual,
structural, and gendered--that breaks new ground on the underbelly
of "India Shining." A vital book for understanding the complexity
of a fast-changing, often corrupt, and highly unequal rising
superpower, the collection contextualizes hard-hitting cases of
human rights violations in contemporary India.
