What is Independent Kashmir : an incomplete aspiration about?
Many disenchanted Kashmiris continue to demand independence or freedom from India. Written by a leading authority on Kashmir's troubled past, this book revisits the topic of independence for the region (also known as Jammu and Kashmir, or J&K), and explores exactly why this aspiration has never been fulfilled. In a rare India-Pakistan agreement, they concur that neither J&K, nor any part of it, can be independent. Charting a complex history and intense geo-political rivalry from the rule of Hari Singh in the mid-1920s to the present, this book offers an essential insight into the disputes that have shaped the region. As tensions continue to rise, Snedden asks a vital question: what might independence look like and just how realistic is this aspiration?
