The societies in the Himalayan borderlands have undergone
wide-ranging transformations, as the territorial reconfiguration of
modern nation-states since the mid-twentieth century and the
presently increasing trans-Himalayan movements of people, goods and
capital, reshape the livelihoods of communities, pulling them into
global trends of modernisation and regional discourses of national
belonging. This book explores the changes to native senses of
place, the conception of border - simultaneously as limitations and
opportunities - and what the authors call "affective boundaries,"
"livelihood reconstruction," and "trans-Himalayan modernities." It
addresses changing social, political, and environmental conditions
that acknowledge growing external connectivity even as it
emphasises the importance of place.
