An innovative collection of essays on the turmoil spreading across South Asia, Contesting Nation sheds light on how violence―in wars of direct and indirect conquest―marks the present. Featuring contributions by distinguished South Asian women scholars, the book offers inspired, gendered, and contested histories of the present, exploring nation-making and its intersections with projects of militarization and cultural assertion, modernization, and globalization.
