Partition Motif in Contemporary Conflicts
S. Jassal

Partition and its repercussions continue to affect society in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Comparing the partition of the Indian sub-continent with similar processes in Israel and Palestine and East and West Germany, this book offers a concept of 'partition-societies' in order to explain the social, economic and political implications of such divisions. The international contributors explore the value of a comparative analysis of partition, specifically the implications of events and processes that began during the years after the Second World War in these areas. It was during this period that the Cold War emerged and during which each of these regions saw the forced separation of groups and societies. They discuss how this separation was of significance, not only in the strict political sense, but formed the basis for long-term processes of identity, of memory and inspiration and societal organization.
