Summary, etc. | The present exercise is unique in the sense<br/>that it not only brings together the full text<br/>of all the 'peace accords' since 1947,<br/>signed between various struggling ethnic<br/>groups and Governments for the first time,<br/>but also follows up the same with various<br/>important documents such as the Anandpur<br/>Sahib Resolution and various legislative<br/>measures that followed to bring to focus<br/>the Constitutional guarantee accorded to<br/>such 'peace accords'. In the Introduction<br/>the author highlights the text of the Indian<br/>Independence Act of July 18, 1947, the<br/>context of the Objective Resolution moved<br/>by Pandit Nehru in the first session of the<br/>Constituent Assembly, the backdrop of the<br/>States' Reorganisation Commission and the<br/>Seventh Amendment Act of 1956, and then<br/>suggests that though the Seventh Amend-<br/>ment Act could set at some sort of rest the<br/>popular urge for recognition through<br/>redrawal of internal political boundary in<br/>the mainland, the northern, eastern and<br/>north-eastern peripheries of the country<br/>continued to burn from within. The author<br/>also touches upon the relevance of the<br/>available conceptual tools to explain this<br/>continuing reality and proposes that as a<br/>conceptual tool, neither the framework of<br/>regionalism-sub-regionalism nor ethnicity-<br/>ethnocentrism can explain the core of the<br/>issues that are only partially true and<br/>hence ultimately wrong.<br/>The book will be of tremendous historical<br/>value not only to a concerned academician<br/>or administrator but also for an ordinary<br/>citizen who has an urge to understand the<br/>present in the light of the past and to<br/>anticipate the future in the light of the<br/>present. |
