Kashmir at the Crossroads
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. In 2019, the conflict entered a dangerous new phase.India's Hindu nationalist government, under Narendra Modi, repealed Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir's autonomous status and divided it into two territories subject to New Delhi's direct rule. Since 1990, at least 60,000 people have been killed-insurgents, civilians, and military and police personnel.
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. The drastic move was accompanied by mass arrests and lengthy suspension of mobile and internet services. 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.
