Wounded Land: Politics and Identify in Modern Manipur

John Parratt (Author)

Synopsis In Wounded Land Professor John Parratt assesses political developments in Manipur from the accession of Maharajah Chura Chand in 1907 until the present day. The first part deals with the growth in political awareness in the first half of the twentieth century, and the popular reactions to feudalism and colonialism. After a detailed examination of the circumstances of the merger with India in 1949, the book then goes on to examine critically the crises caused by the militarisation of the state, insurgency, civil rights abuses, and the failures of government. A final chapter deals with the events of 2004 and assesses prospects for the future of the state.
