In the wake of the legalization of the Citizenship Amendment Act in 2019, this region remains a hot bed of identity and refugee politics. Drawing on extensive research and in-depth fieldwork, this book discusses themes of displacement, rehabilitation, discrimination, and politicization of refugees that preceded and followed the Partition of India in 1947. It portrays the crises experienced by refugees in recreating the socio-cultural milieu of the lost motherland and the consequent loss of their linguistic, cultural, economic and ethnic identities. The author also studies how the presence of the refugees shaped the conduct of politics in West Bengal, Assam and Tripura in the decades following Partition. Refugees, Borders and Identities will be indispensable for scholars and researchers of refugee studies, border studies, South Asian history, migration studies, Partition studies, sociology, anthropology, political studies, international relations, refugee studies, and general readers of modern Indian history"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Refugees $z India, Northeastern $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Internally displaced persons $z India, Northeastern $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Refugees $x Government policy $z India. 650 0 $a Internally displaced persons $x Government policy $z India. 650 0 $a Migration, Internal $z India, Northeastern. 651 0 $a India $x Influence. $y Partition, 1947 $x Influence. 650 7 $a Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00972484 650 7 $a Migration, Internal. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01020741 650 7 $a Refugees $x Government policy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01092811 650 7 $a Refugees $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01092844 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 651 7 $a Northeastern India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01692634 648 7 $a 1947 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Ghoshal, Anindita, $t Refugees, borders and identities $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2021. $z 9780429317620 $w (DLC) 2020012629 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526014023.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EE20B6EA323411EC8B1165C359ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
