Descrizione
The establishment of new nationstates after the partition of British India in 1947 not only required new geographical boundaries but also a cognitive map with mental borders that inform who are included and excluded. This book concerns the 'tyrannical' workings of such borders on the mind of nationbuilders in both Bangladesh and India. In the end, the author argues that if the continuation of the two nationstates circumscribed by geographical borders is desired, their cognitive maps have to be altered through new mental borders that departition these societies.
