A View from the Gallery
Introduction A view from the gallery is always different from one from within the arena. Having come from a non-imperial nation, rather, from a decolonized one, in this case, India, ‘the jewel in the crown’ for the mighty British Empire, it was a rich experience to listen as to how the post-imperial European nations and their lone Asian counterpart, Japan, looked back at their imperial past. Were these journeys to the past nostalgic, imbued with …
The Other Side of Partition
Violence, whether caused by ethno-religious conflicts or divisions of political spaces, leads to displacement, within a country or across international borders. The 1947 Partition of India resulted in a huge human exodus in search of security and was accompanied by mass massacres. This traumatic experience left marks on all spheres of life, including culture as expressed in creative efforts in the fields of literature, music, cinema, drama and pa…
Changing Frontiers
This article focuses on patterns of the peopling of East Bengal from the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries and analyses the dynamics of this process in terms of the migrants’ religious, social and political values. In this process, a number of boundaries were crossed, which South Asian Area Studies experts are still struggling to understand. Exploring this phenomenon of changing frontiers from a comparative historical perspective, the westwa…
Politics of Personal Law in India
Focusing explicitly on a political science perspective, this article argues that the inter-communal politics of personal law debates in India can be seen as a politically navigated form of identity construction. Specifically the Hindu–Muslim debates demonstrate that today, such contested matters of identity are not merely debated within national boundaries but have also taken on global dimensions which need to be accounted for. Inter-communal pol…

Cooperation and Conflict in South Asia
The forces of cooperation are overshadowed by those of conflict in south Asia mainly because of the tenor of domestic politics of the region. The central argument of the study is that regimes in South Asia respond to political challenges both domestic and external in a fashion not conducive to the growth of regionalism
Terrorism and Saarc
The menace of terrorism which is uppermost on the agenda of several governments of the world these days has rightly been characterised as wars that need not require violation of national frontiers. The allusion here of course is to international terrorism. But the border line demarcating “national” and international terrorism is itself so blurred that it would indeed be unrealistic to distinguish one from another. Thanks to the growing complexiti…
India's Southeast Asia Policy
World Oil Outlook
The year 1973 was a watershed in the history of energy. That year the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) took the momentous decision to raise the price of crude oil multifold resulting in the worst energy crunch in recorded history. The trend which the OPEC decision set in motion continued unabated and by 1980–81 oil was sold at a price about five times as that of 1972. The unprecedented rise in the price of oil resulted in a wo…
Domestic Support for Mrs. Gandhi's Afghan Policy
IN ONE of those strange tricks that history springs on an unsuspecting world, the USSR massively intervened in Afghanistan in December 1979. Occurring at a time when the Janata government in India, which had emphasized genuine nonalignment in foreign policy, had spent itself, and elections were imminent, the untimely intervention laid the new Indian government's foreign policy squarely on the line. It is to the credit of Mrs. Indira Gandhi, the a…
