India-Pakistan: The History of Unsolved Conflicts (2 Volume Set) (Odense University Studies in History and Social Sciences) (Part v)

Since August 1947 when the two new states were created out of British India,
There has been an almost continous conflict between India and Pakistan. It has come to war on three occasions, in 1947- 48, in 1965 and in 1971. Since then relations have difficult or strained and especially in recent years, a crisis level has been reached in Kashmir, the main bone of contention between the parties. The study is a comprehensive historical cum political–science one and is written in a clear–cut way so that also persons without special foreknowledge but with a keen interest in political matters can easily read it.
