About this product
Product Information
The territory of Jammu and Kashmir is one of the most politically contested and heavily militarised spaces on the planet. It has long been presented as an 'internal dispute', mainly by India, in attempts to sustain power through the project of settler colonialism. In this context, Kashmiri voices are rarely heard and so the conflict remains little understood, with a resolution nowhere in sight. In Nuclear Flashpoint, Farhan Chak reveals how the history, culture, identity and the will of the people of Kashmir has been deliberately obscured to suit ideological agendas. He explores six unique time frames in Kashmiri history - from ancient Kashmir, through the British Raj, to present day. Asking 'who is a Kashmiri?', Chak reviews major misconceptions and exposes how vested interests articulate and interpret them. Chak shines a light on the long cycle of revolt that continues in resistance movements today, and asks us to reconsider Kashmir's ongoing quest for independence.

Reviews
'Institutionalized systemic racial persecution ... against the people of Kashmir has pushed the world to the edge of nuclear conflict. Torture, unlawful killings and the denial of basic human rights and freedoms are well-documented by Amnesty, Human Rights Watch and others. Dr. Chak's skillful analysis explains just how this unresolved crisis threatens global peace.' Ilyasah Shabbazz, educator and author of Growing Up X: A Memoir by the Daughter of Malcolm X, 'Repeated clashes between India, Pakistan and China over Kashmir threaten to erupt into a nuclear conflict that might kill as many as 120 million in India and Pakistan, and perhaps several 1000 million worldwide. These disputes need to be resolved, which requires understanding their origins, the people of Kashmir and their struggles, and recent changes in the region. Nuclear Flashpoint provides essential insight into these issues for all who are concerned.' Professor Brian Toon, University of Colorado, 'An urgent and trenchant examination of Kashmir. Beautifully meshing history with modern political analysis, Chak masterfully interrogates ... the intersecting flashpoints that make the Kashmir crisis one of the most politically sensitive issues in modern world history. Beyond intellectual examination, Chak injects first-hand insights as a scholar, advocate and ancestral Kashmiri to offer a richness that few other books provide - bringing intimacy and empathy to words that spring colorfully from the pages.' Khaled A. Beydoun, Law Professor and author of American Islamophobia
