New Waves in Philosophical Logic - - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

New Waves in Philosophical Logic - - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Since 1989, religious fundamentalism and exclusionary nationalism in Jammu and Kashmir have generated political and social turmoil and eroded the ethos and culture of Kashmir. These forces are responsible for the silencing of dissenters, economic deprivation, lack of infrastructure, mass displacements, political anarchy, and the repression of women. Women in Kashmir constantly grapple with both the devastating effects of Indian occupation and Pakistani infiltration and their own complicated histories. Nyla Ali Khan, the granddaughter of the first Prime Minister of Jammu and Kashmir, Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah, gives an insider''s analysis of the effects of nationalist, militant, and religious discourses and praxes on a genderbased hierarchy. This crossdisciplinary project shows the attempted relegation of Kashmiri women to the archives of memory and reveals the women''s powerful and persistent endeavors to rise from the ashes of immolated identities.

Nuclear Risk Reduction in South Asia - Michael Krepon - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Nuclear Risk Reduction in South Asia - Michael Krepon - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

The essys in this collection explore and analyze how to reduce the risk of nuclear war in South Asia. Contributors work to introduce the theory and methodology of nuclear risk reduction, to provide specific measures that might work best in the region, and to consider the consequences of missile defense options for stability in Asia. Much work is needed to recduce nuclear dangers between India and Pakistan. While the fact that both countries possess nuclear weapons may prevent a full-blown conventional or nuclear war, the presence of these weapons in the region may also encourage the use of violence at lower levels expecting escalation to be contained by a mutual desire to avoid the nuclear threshold. One only needs to look at the Kashmir conflict for confirmation of this paradox, with serious crises coming more frequently with more severity since the nuclear tests of 1998. Sustained efforts along the line suggested by the contributors of this volume are a crucial step toward reducing nuclear risk on the Subcontinent.
