Synopsis: |
Tripura in India's Northeast remains the only region in the world which has sustained a strong left radical political tradition for more than a century, in a context not usually congenial for left politics. Tripura is one of the 29 States in India which has returned the Communist Party of India (Marxist) led Left Front repeatedly to power. This book examines the roots, nature, governmental performance, and theoretical and policy implications of left radicalism in Tripura. Based on original archival and the very recent empirical and documentary sources on the subject, the author shows that the Left in Tripura is well-entrenched, and it has sustained itself compared to other parts of India, despite deeply rooted ethnic tensions between the aboriginal peoples (tribes) and immigrants Bengalis. A useful contribution to the study of radical left politics in India general and State politics in particular, this book will be of interest to researchers of modern Indian history, India's Northeast, and South Asian Politics. |
