Danger in KashmirPrinceton University Press, 1954 - 351 pages On 15 August, 1947, two countries, India and Pakistan had their independence thrust upon them in a somewhat urgent and not completely orderly manner. It was not that the peoples of these two new-born countries had not been agitating for independence as indeed they had for many years, sometimes with open violence, but mostly with passive resistance. When suddenly Independence came with a rush, these new countries, whose combined numbers approximate one-fifth of the worlds population, were ill-prepared for the peaceful settlement of the many knotty problems that such a hasty separation entailed. |
