Description: Resisting Occupation in Kashmir considers the social and legal dimensions of India's occupation of Kashmir and the ways in which Kashmiri youth are drawing on the region's history of armed rebellion to reimagine the freedom struggle in the twenty-first century.

Review Quotes: "Resisting Occupation in Kashmir is a significant intervention in the literature on the insurgency in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir...[B]y unraveling the complexities of the impact of the intractable Kashmir dispute on the inhabitants of the region--which forces them to participate in their own repression and that of their neighbors and friends--Resisting Occupation in Kashmir is a sobering reminder that the time for a resolution to this conflict might wellnigh be past."-- "The Journal of Asian Studies"
