Book excerpt: In Kashmir: Glimpses of History and the Story of Struggle, one of the most prominent voices of Kashmir, Saifuddin Soz takes a passionate and compelling look at the past, present and future of a vastly misunderstood people. Throughout its long, diverse, distinctive but scarred history, the beautiful and bountiful land of Kashmir has captured the imagination of travellers, kings, historians and nations. From its origins as an ancient civilization, to embracing Islam, to fighting invaders, to ruthless militancy, and the ensuing action by the Indian army; Kashmir has seen it all. Kashmiris fought the Mughals, the Afghans and the Sikhs in the past. However, it was their fight against Dogra autocracy that ultimately led to their disillusionment with the Indian establishment. With Pakistan feeding the emotions of deeply alienated and disenchanted people and the Indian government using force and taking a harder stand by the day, this unique culture now stands completely besieged. What is the future of Kashmir, then? What is the destiny of its people? Can there be solution to the weary problem confronting Kashmir? Can Kashmir reconcile with the past for a better future? Can the Valley return to a life of dignity, peace and development? How? Saifuddin Soz discusses these questions and provides credible and implementable solutions to end the grave crisis.

Download or read book Marginalization In History A Study of Rural Women In Kashmir written by Dr. Urmeena Akhter and published by EduBubs Publishing House. This book was released on 2020-12-04 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marginalization is a multidimensional, multicausal, historical phenomenon. There are no general laws to understand and comprehend the complex nature of marginalization. The nature of marginalization varies in different settings. For example, the marginalization of women in Kashmir is not same as in rest of India, though, broadly, they share some features. The religious ideological system, patriarchy, political-economy of a country, and the overall social system have impact on the marginalization of a specific group or individual. Development is always broadly conceived in terms of mass participation. Marginalization deprives a large majority of people across the globe from participating in the development. It is a complex problem, and there are many factors that cause marginalization. This complex and serious problem need to be addressed at the policy level. Marginalization however, has remained to be a persistent phenomena in one form or the other for a vast section of the population despite fast social and economic transition in the society of Kashmir. Against this backdrop the present book aims to scrutinize the concept of marginalization as an interrelated social process, its changing dimensions and socio-political implications of persistent marginalization in Kashmir. This book is an attempt to highlight the marginalization in history of Kashmir. This book will help students and researchers to understand marginalization in history of Kashmir in a better way.
