India and Pakistan

The rise of ethnic and religious conflicts in the post-Cold War era has reawakened consideration of the future of nationalism and the nation state. The Indian subcontinent with its myriad ethnic, religious and linguistic divides provides a focus for examination of the interplay between nationalism, religion and ethnicity. The region''s growing violence and instability is in part a result of this process, sharpened by social inequalities and the struggle to control scarce resources.
