Book excerpt: Shortlisted for the Orwell Prize Shortlisted for the New India Foundation Book Prize Anthropologist Alpa Shah found herself in an active platoon of Naxalites—one of the longest-running guerrilla insurgencies in the world. The only woman, and the only person without a weapon, she walked alongside the militants for seven nights across 150 miles of dense, hilly forests in eastern India. Nightmarch is the riveting story of Shah's journey, grounded in her years of living with India’s tribal people, an eye-opening exploration of the movement’s history and future and a powerful contemplation of how disadvantaged people fight back against unjust systems in today’s world. The Naxalites have fought for a communist society for the past fifty years, caught in a conflict that has so far claimed at least forty thousand lives. Yet surprisingly little is known about these fighters in the West. Framed by the Indian state as a deadly terrorist group, the movement is actually made up of Marxist ideologues and lower-caste and tribal combatants, all of whom seek to overthrow a system that has abused them for decades. In Nightmarch, Shah shares some of their gritty untold stories: here we meet a high-caste leader who spent almost thirty years underground, a young Adivasi foot soldier, and an Adivasi youth who defected. Speaking with them and living for years with villagers in guerrilla strongholds, Shah has sought to understand why some of India’s poor have shunned the world’s largest democracy and taken up arms to fight for a fairer society—and asks whether they might be undermining their own aims. By shining a light on this largely ignored corner of the world, Shah raises important questions about the uncaring advance of capitalism and offers a compelling reflection on dispossession and conflict at the heart of contemporary India.

Download or read book From Popular Movements to Rebellion written by Ranabir Samaddar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Popular Movements to Rebellion: The Naxalite Decade argues that without an understanding of the popular sources of the rebellion of that time, the age of the Naxalite revolt will remain beyond our understanding. Many of the chapters of the book bring out for the first time unknown peasant heroes and heroines of that era, analyses the nature of the urban revolt, and shows how the urban revolt of that time anticipated street protests and occupy movements that were to shake the world forty-fifty years later. This is a moving and poignant book. Some of the essays are deeply reflective about why the movement failed and was at the end alienated. Ranabir Samaddar says that, the Naxalite Movement has been denied a history. The book also carries six powerful short stories written during the Naxalite Decade and which are palpably true to life of the times. The book has some rare photographs and ends with newspaper clippings from the period. As a study of rebellious politics in post-Independent India, this volume with its focus on West Bengal and Bihar will stand out as an exceptional history of contemporary times. From Popular Movements to Rebellion: The Naxalite Decade will be of enormous relevance to students and scholars of history, politics, sociology and culture, and journalists and political and social activists at large.

Download or read book An Unfinished Revolution written by Kishalay Bhattacharjee and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 14 March 2012, two Italian nationals, Paolo Bosusco and Claudio Colangelo, were taken hostage from the tribal-dominated Kandhamal area of Odisha, in eastern India. The kidnappers belonged to the extreme left- wing radical group known as the CPI (Maoists). They were led by Sabyasachi Panda who had been involved in several militant activities since 1999. What followed was a dramatic month-long crisis in which a crew of television journalists engaged with the Maoist leader and facilitated the release of Claudio. An Unfinished Revolution: A Hostage Crisis, Adivasi Resistance and the Naxal Movement is a racy, first-hand account that tells the tale of the hostages, from abduction to release. It also chronicles the history of tribal resistance which was appropriated by the Maoists — a movement that has been one of India’s major internal security challenges since the late 1960s.
Download or read book The First Naxal written by Bappaditya Paul and published by SAGE Publications Pvt. Limited. This book was released on 2019-01-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seldom happens that the story of an individual becomes so intertwined with the cause she or he stands for that it becomes impossible to separate the one from the other. Kanu Sanyal’s is one such rare story: to read it is to relive the history of the Naxalite Movement, which the Indian establishments call the country’s biggest internal security threat. This book narrates the making of Kanu Sanyal right from his childhood to the days of the Naxalbari uprising and beyond. It delves deep into Sanyal’s evolution as a Communist rebel and throws light on the various stages of the Naxalite Movement with relevant background information. What is significant about this book is that this is the only authorised biography of Kanu Sanyal in any language—he personally read and cleared all its chapters but the last one, which deals with his aberrant demise.

Book excerpt: "Naxalite movements, the current Maoist insurgencies in India, and the ten-year Maoist insurrection that has led to fundamental changes in Nepal. The central question that I hope to answer is why Maoism has continued to inspire violent revolution so long after the Chaiman's death. From these cases, there emerge three compelling reasons for Maoism's existence and persistence in South Asia it employs tactically effective methods; it springs from political organisations that are prone to extremist schisms; and it targets populations that have not tasted the fruits of political and economic development. Effectively dealing with Maoist insurrections in these countries will necessitate the implementation of policies that bring real change to the peasants and rural poor. Policy makers must also be open to new and peaceful ways to entice Maoists to contribute to positive change. Until such policies are implemented, and implemented with speed, the prospect of Maoist violence will continue." -- BOOK JACKET.

Book excerpt: The Naxalite Movement has been a significant socio-political movement of 21st century India. It is seen as the single largest internal security challenge ever faced by the country. Starting from the village of Naxalbari, the Naxals have grown in number and strength. It was started under the leadership of Charu Majumdar and Kanu Sanyal, in May 1967 at Naxalbari in the state of West Bengal. After its four decades of existence it has emerged as a decisive force in the country. At present the movement has spread over 170 districts in 15 states of India. In our country the Naxalite activities are found in backward areas in different states and concentrated in a slender passage way running from Bihar in North-east, through Jharakhand and Chhattishgarh in the centre, down to Orissa and Andhra Pradesh in the South. It is this 'Red Corridor' that has become the operational field of the Naxalities. During the last few decades, Naxal activities gained a mass base among peasants, Adivasis, Dalits and labouring classes. Particularly, Naxal activities have reported in hilly, forest and backward areas of the country which are traditionally remained beyond the reach of any development projects, social welfare schemes and agencies of administration. Since all the demands and grievances of the Tribals, Dalits, landless agricultural workers and the like could be met and resolved within the parameters of the Constitution and existing legal and policy frame, a responsive and sympathetic political leadership at different levels can solve the issue of Naxalism if they had the will and if they could transcend their proximate class interests.
