An authoritative, fresh, and vividly written account of the Kashmir
conflict-from 1947 to the present The India-Pakistan dispute over
Kashmir is one of the world's incendiary conflicts. Since 1990, at
least 60,000 people have been killed-insurgents, civilians, and
military and police personnel. In 2019, the conflict entered a
dangerous new phase. India's Hindu nationalist government, under
Narendra Modi, repealed Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir's
autonomous status and divided it into two territories subject to
New Delhi's direct rule. The drastic move was accompanied by mass
arrests and lengthy suspension of mobile and internet services. In
this definitive account, Sumantra Bose examines the conflict in
Kashmir from its origins to the present volatile juncture. He
explores the global context of the current situation, including
China's growing role, as well as the human tragedy of the people
caught in the bitter dispute. Drawing on three decades of field
experience in Kashmir, Bose asks whether a compromise settlement is
still possible given the ascendancy of Hindu nationalism in India
and the complex geopolitical context.
