520 _aThis compendium of keywords and key texts addresses predominantly though not exclusively - the varied experiences with autonomy in India. Growing out of a two-year research work by a collective, it reflects the rainbow nature of the enterprise and findings. The keywords in particular reflect on the philosophical, social, legal and political dimensions of the notion and experiences of autonomy. The compendium will be a valuable sourcebook for students, researchers, autonomy activists and lay readers. The keywords selected here cut across the immediate experiential horizon and utmost care has been taken to tease out their deeper philosophical and praxiological implications in a direct and simple way that does not unduly repel the interested yet untrained readers. While documents issued by governmental sources have their own ways of publicising themselves, those relating to popular mobilisations and popular politics find it difficult if not impossible, to reach wider readership. Most of the documents have been included here keeping this in view and represent a wide variety of experiences from Kashmir to Kohima and from Lund to Ladakh.
