KASHMIR IN CONFLICT
Description
Why is the valley of Kashmir, famed for its beauty and tranquillity, regarded by many political and military analysts as the most likely catalyst for unclear conflict in the 21st century? Why does the Kashmir separatist movement challenge the integrity of the Indian state and stability of Pakistan and pose a threat to a region of great strategic importance? Victoria Schofield's updated revision of the highly acclaimed Kashmir in the crossfire examines the Kashmir conflict, from the period when the valley was an ancient independent kingdom to the most recent flare-up. Located on the borders of china, central Asia and the subcontinent, the state of Jammu and Kashmir in 1999 once again confirmed its status as a battle-ground for India and Pakistan, the worlds latest and most confrontational unclear powers.
