The escalating tensions between India and Pakistan have received
renewed attention of late. Since their genesis in 1947, the nations
of India and Pakistan have been locked in a seemingly endless
spiral of hostility over the disputed territory of Kashmir. Ganguly
asserts that the two nations remain mired in conflict due to
inherent features of their nationalist agendas. Indian nationalist
leadership chose to hold on to this Muslim-majority state to prove
that minorities could thrive in a plural, secular polity. Pakistani
nationalists argued with equal force that they could not part with
Kashmir as part of the homeland created for the Muslims of South
Asia. Ganguly authoritatively analyzes why hostility persists even
after the dissipation of the pristine ideological visions of the
two states and discusses their dual path to overt acquisition of
nuclear weapons, as well as the current prospects for war and peace
in the region.
