Kashmir And Tibet: Comparing Conflicts, States, And Solutions
Title: | Kashmir And Tibet: Comparing Conflicts, States, And Solutions | Author: | Carole Mcgranahan | Publication: | India Review / Routledge, part of the Taylor & Francis Group | Enumeration: | Vol. 2, No. 3 , pp.: 145 - 180/ July 2003 | Abstract: | Five decades of conflicts in Kashmir and Tibet continue into the twenty-first century without clear signs of resolution. This article focuses on issues of collective rights, national identity, and state sovereignty in these two conflicts to ask what political recourses exist for Tibetans or citizens of Jammu and Kashmir in today's changing world. As citizens of differently organized states and subjects to dissimilar conflicts, what methods and types of conflict resolution might Tibetans and Kashmiris have shared access to? Both of these post-WWII conflicts have been framed and defined by the two core states involved, India and China. Analytically, therefore, this article draws on anthropological and political constructivist work on the state to suggest possible non-violent, community-oriented solutions to these conflicts.
