Kashmir after 2019 (eBook, ePUB)

Abrogation of Article 370 and Completing the Partition
Redaktion: Menski, Werner; Yousuf, Muneeb

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This volume portrays India's removal of Article 370 in August 2019 as an effort to stop the suffering of its highly diverse people. Though this signified the completion of the partition of 1947, latent adherence to dreams of freedom (Azadi) indicates that this needs to be more widely understood as a viable peace-making effort.
