Separatist Violence in South Asia (eBook, PDF)

A comparative study

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines why nation-building projects in South Asia, including secessionist movements from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, have failed to successfully integrate sub-national communities. By deconstructing sovereignty into its constituent components, the book explores the motives, tactics, successes and failures of South Asia's separatist movements and offers an explanation for why separatism, but not political violence, has recently declined in the region. Taking a comparative explanatory viewpoint, it offers a comprehensive review of relevant explanatory theories dominant in the scholarly literature on secession and an examination of their application to South Asia.
