Summary: The past year has been one of both remarkable successes against terrorism in South Asia, and of considerable and tragic failures. In Sri Lanka, even as the world's hopes of a peaceful resolution rose with the prospects of mediation, critical military reverses for the Government in the Jaffna peninsula inflicted huge losses of life, and pushed the prospects of peace far into an uncertain future. In India, it has been a traumatic time for Kashmir, but significant gains have been registered in the Northeast. Disturbing signs are emerging in Nepal, with escalating violence by Maoist 'revolutionaries'. The waning of old movements and the emergence of the new, strategic shifts and innovations in the technologies and tactics of the new low intensity wars in South Asia make the tasks of analysis and response the more urgent. In this volume, FAULTLINES takes another look at some of the disturbing realities of terror in the sub-continent.
