Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Times in Assam The following pages contain nothing new or original. They are merely reprints from the columns of the Englishman and the Indian Planters' Gazette, and I have to thank the proprietors of those papers for permission to republish sketches of old times in Assam, which may prove interesting to a new generation of planters who know only the Assam of the present day, with its daily mail steamers on the river, and its improved communications and higher civilisation generally. There was much of interest in those old times which has never been recorded, and I can only hope that a more capable chronicler among the survivors of the early days of tea in Assam may be stirred up to fittingly record, for the admiration of the present generation, what was done and suffered by the pioneers of the tea industry.

The temme of Ksmkhys at Gauhati is one of the most sacred shrines of the Sakta Hindus, and the whole country is famed in Hindu traditions as a land of magic and witch craft. The old tribal beliefs are gradually being abandoned and the way in which Hindu priests established their in uence over non-aryan chiefs and gradually drew them within their fold is repeatedly exemplified in the pages of Assam History. The various methods of conversion enumerated by Sir Alfred Lyall and Mr. Risley have all been adopted there at one time or another.

Download or read book India Against Itself written by Sanjib Baruah and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 1999-06-29 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era of failing states and ethnic conflict, violent challenges from dissenting groups in the former Yugoslavia, the former Soviet Union, several African countries, and India give cause for grave concern in much of the world. And it is in India where some of the most turbulent of these clashes have been taking place. One resulted in the creation of Pakistan, and militant separatist movements flourish in Kashmir, Punjab, Manipur, Mizoram, Nagaland, and Assam. In India Against Itself, Sanjib Baruah focuses on the insurgency in Assam in order to explore the politics of subnationalism. Baruah offers a bold and lucid interpretation of the political and economic history of Assam from the time it became a part of British India and a leading tea-producing region in the nineteenth century. He traces the history of tensions between pan-Indianism and Assamese subnationalism since the early days of Indian nationalism. The region's insurgencies, human rights abuses by government security forces and insurgents, ethnic violence, and a steady slide toward illiberal democracy, he argues, are largely due to India's formally federal, but actually centralized governmental structure. Baruah argues that in multiethnic polities, loose federations not only make better democracies, in the era of globalization they make more economic sense as well. This challenging and accessible work addresses a pressing contemporary problem with broad relevance for the history of nationality while offering an important contribution to the study of ethnic conflict. A native of northeast India, Baruah draws on a combination of scholarly research, political engagement, and an insider's knowledge of Assamese culture and society.
