Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. Joya Chatterji provides here a selection of her finest and most influential essays. Partition, nation-making, frontiers, refugees, minority formation, and categories of citizenship have been my preoccupations, she says. These are also the major themes of this book. Chatterji s Bengal Divided (1994) shifted the focus from Muslim fanaticism as the driving force of Partition towards secular nationalism and Hindu aggression. Her Spoils of Partition (2007) rejected the idea of Partition as a breaking apart, showing it as a process for remaking society and state. Her third (jointly written) book, Bengal Diaspora (2016), challenged the idea of migration and resettlement as exceptional situations. Partition s Legacies can be seen as continuous with Chatterji s earlier work as well as a distillation and expansion of it. According to David Washbrook, What emerges from these essays is often quite startling. The demarcation of Partition followed no master plan but was made up of myriad ad hoc decisions. Refugee policy, immigrant rights, and even definitions of national citizenship were produced out of day-to-day struggles on the streets and in the courts . . . Known for the elegance of her prose as much as for the sharpness of her insights into Indian history, Joya Chatterji s new book will enthral everyone interested in modern India s apocalyptic past.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Tiny amounts of light shelf wear only. Appears to be unread. Joya Chatterji's Shadows at Noon is a major, award‑winning history of South Asia across the twentieth century. Rather than telling the story strictly through politics or chronology, Chatterji uses a thematic approach to explore how everyday life, culture, family structures, food, leisure, migration, and social change shaped the modern identities of India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. The book traces the region from the final decades of the British Raj through independence and Partition, and into the formation of the three modern nation‑states. Chatterji challenges the idea that these countries are defined by "inherent" differences, instead highlighting the deep continuities and shared experiences across the subcontinent.…
