    Book Review

    Kashmir has been experiencing new dynamics of conflict. Though not entirely unknown to students of ethnic conflicts, the dynamics and complications that have developed over a period of time have made the Kashmir conflict extremely complicated given the number of actors involved in it. Additionally, it has been seen that the semblance of peace in the state of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) has often been mistaken as resolution of the conflict. Unfortunately, this mistake has dented the thinking of policymakers and politicians, both at the centre and state level, who are then caught off-guard when there is a new eruption of disenchantment, or what the author David Devadas calls ‘rage’.
