This book is the first study of political and legal thinking about
the partitions of India and Palestine in 1947. The chapters in the
volume, authored by leading scholars of partition, draw attention
to the pathways of peoples, geographic spaces, colonial policies,
laws, and institutions that connect them from the vantage point of
those most engaged by the process: political actors, party
activists, jurists, diplomats, philosophers, and international
representatives from the Middle East, South Asia, and beyond.
Additionally, the volume investigates some of the underlying causes
of partition in both places such as the hardening of religious
fault-lines, majoritarian politics, and the failure to construct
viable forms of government in deeply divided societies. -- .
