Goes beyond the importance of borderlands as territorial or geopolitical entities, providing new perspectives on their historical, temporal and affective dimensions and how they manifest in a range of historical and contemporary experiences. It will be of interest to students and researchers in history, anthropology, sociology and literature.
This is an interdisciplinary volume exploring a range of historical, anthropological and literary ideas and issues in South Asian Borderlands. Going beyond the territorial and geo-political imaginaries of contemporary borderlands in South Asia, chapters in this book engage with the questions of sovereignty, control, policing as well as continuing affections across politically divided borderlands. Modern conceptions of nationhood have created categories of legality and illegality among historically, socially, economically and emotionally connected residents of South Asian borderlands. This volume provides unique insights into the interconnected lives and histories of these borderland spaces and communities.
