Book excerpt: The author of this volume is an officer in the Company's service, who in 1840 was filling the learned and business-like offices of Interpreter and Quartermaster to his regiment at Mynpooree in Upper India, when he was appointed second in command to the Assam Light Infantry : so to Assam he went. How long he remained there, and what he did, is not told : the volume consists of an account of his journey to his station in Assam, several personal incidents during his early residence there, a description of the country and people, with a sketch of its history, and of the wild tribes by whom Assam is on all sides surrounded, and the Assamese are plundered, kidnapped, or murdered.The volume is chiefly a contribution to our knowledge of the geography and barbarous tribes beyond the Ganges. Popular matter is indeed scattered through the pages, consisting of circumstances that occurred to the author himself, anecdotes of the savage tribes that partly occupy, partly surround Assam, together with some bits of history : but the value of the book consists in the special information it furnishes about a country of which we hear a good deal and know little ; and in this point of view it is useful.Notwithstanding the boasts of the venders and the advertisements in shops, there is little likelihood that Assam tea will realize the promises of projectors or the hopes of the public, at least in this generation. Tea can doubtless be grown in Assam, as it can in other places ; but, we fear, not in sufficient quantity to interfere with the Chinese supply, still less to compete with is in price. As a reprint from original, this book includes full color pictures and drawings.

Book excerpt: As India and the world are roiled by questions of nationalism and identity, this book journeys into the history of one of the world’s newest and most fascinating regions: Northeast India. Having appeared with the stroke of a pen in 1947, as the British Raj was torn asunder and partitioned into India and Pakistan, this is a region of hills inhabited by myriad tribes. Until colonial rule, they had lived in their ancient ways largely unmolested by their neighbours, who were rather keen to avoid their traditions of head-hunting. Samrat Choudhury chronicles the processes by which these remote hill-tribes, and the diverse other peoples inhabiting the valley of the vast Brahmaputra River below, became parts of the ‘imagined nation’ that is India. Through the invention of the Northeast, he explores two other ideas of India that remain in daily competition: Bharat, the Hindu nationalist conception of the country, and Hindustan, the Persian-origin name by which India is still known as far west as Turkey. Taking a long view, this absorbing political history chronicles the separate pathways by which imperialism, Christianity and the British love of tea brought each of the contemporary region’s constituent states, kicking and screaming, into modern India.

Book excerpt: This is the first visual history of Arunachal Pradesh, a state in northeast India bordering on Tibet/China, Burma and Bhutan. Based on archival and field research, it illustrates a century and a half of cultural change in this culturally diverse and little-known region of the Himalayas. More than 200 photographs, half archival and half contemporary, reveal that tribal cultures in this remote mountainous region have been continually reacting to external forces and initiating internal innovations. The Introduction places the archival photographs in their wider context, emphasising the complexity of the colonial encounter and uncovering personal stories behind many of the images. The sequence of photographs, juxtaposing the historical and the contemporary, shows us the uneven and sometimes confusing mixture of past and present that is emerging in Arunachal Pradesh.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People’s Peace lays a solid foundation for the argument that global peace is possible because ordinary people are its architects. Saikia and Haines offer a unique and imaginative perspective on people’s daily lives across the world as they struggle to create peace despite escalating political violence. The volume’s focus on local and ordinary efforts highlights peace as a lived experience that goes beyond national and international peace efforts. In addition, the contributors’ emphasis on the role of religion as a catalyst for peace moves away from the usual depiction of religion as a source of divisiveness and conflict. Spanning a range of humanities disciplines, the essays in this volume provide case studies of individuals defying authority or overcoming cultural stigmas to create peaceful relations in their communities. From investigating how ancient Jews established communal justice to exploring how black and white citizens in Ferguson, Missouri, are working to achieve racial harmony, the contributors find that people are acting independently of governments and institutions to identify everyday methods of coexisting with others. In putting these various approaches in dialogue with each other, this volume produces a theoretical intervention that shifts the study of peace away from national and international organizations and institutions toward locating successful peaceful efforts in the everyday lives of individuals.
