Description

The 1947 Partition had a major impact on issues of citizenship and rights in India and Pakistan in the decades that followed. Boundaries of Belonging shows how citizenship evolves at a time of political transition and what this meant for ordinary people, by directing attention away from South Asia's Partition 'hotspots' - Bengal and Punjab - to Partition's 'hinterlands' of Uttar Pradesh and Sindh. The analysis, based on rich archival research and fieldwork, brings out commonalities, differences, and the mutual co-construction of the 'citizen' in both places. It also reveals the way in which developments across the border, such as communal violence, could directly impact on minority rights in its neighbour. Questioning stereotypes of an increasingly 'authoritarian' Pakistan and 'democratic' India, Sarah Ansari and William Gould make a major contribution to recent scholarship that suggests the differences between India and Pakistan are overstated. Review 'Boundaries of Belonging is an engaging and authoritative study which deserves a wide readership. It addresses everyday meanings of citizenship in the UP and Sindh 'hinterlands' of India's 1947 Partition. The book provides important insights into the common challenges facing India and Pakistan with respect to claims of entitlement to citizenship.' Ian Talbot, University of Southampton'This book is a major new addition to the growing literature on the idea of citizenship in the postcolonial world. Ansari and Gould have woven a narrative that brings to life political processes and lived social experiences of transitions from colonial subjecthood to republican modes of citizenship, describing in this process what it meant for people to identify as citizens and notions of belonging to the nation-state.' Ali Usman Qasmi, Lahore University of Management Sciences'The thematically organized chapters innovatively highlight both nations' marginalized groups, including women, landless agricultural laborers, and their respective religious minorities.' M. H. Fisher, Choice Book Description Explores citizenship, rights and belonging in post-Independence South Asia, examining the long-term impact of the 1947 Partition. About the Author Sarah Ansari is Professor of History at Royal Holloway, University of London.William Gould is Professor of Indian History at the University of Leeds.
