Ethnic Conflict in India: A Case-Study of Punjab

Autor G. Singh
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 feb 2000
This important new book critically evaluates the conventional reading of ethnicity and ethnic conflict in contemporary Indian politics. By focusing on India's nation and state-building in the peripheral regions since 1947, in particular Punjab, it argues that there is a case for considering India as an ethnic democracy.
