Series: Debates in Indian History
Pages: 320
Description: This volume explores the timing and causes of the Partition of India in 1947 from the elections of 1936-7 to the acceptance of the Partition plan. It examines the major debates surrounding this momentous event and their changing nature over a period of time.
Synopsis: The year 1947 was a turning point in the history of South Asia. The independence of British India resulted in two sovereign states: India and Pakistan. This book analyses two important dimensions of the Partition-timing and causation. The essays by prominent scholars study the long- and short-term causes of the Partition, beginning with the elections of 1936-7 and the subsequent formation of Congress government in most provinces. They outline the major debates and their changing nature over time. The volume ends with the analysis of events that led to the acceptance of the Partition plan in 1947 by all major parties. The Introduction examines contours of the debate and also situates the Partition in the context of current historiography. This book will be of considerable interest to scholars and students of modern Indian history and politics.
