Abstract:
This study will focus on the refugee crisis and migration due to the idea of nationalism in the poetry of Jibanananda Das’s “1946-47” and Allen Ginsberg’s “September on Jessore Road.”. There is an affinity between the experiences of the two poets. Das’s “1946-47” theme focuses on the refugee crisis and communal violence during the subcontinent's partition in 1947. On the other hand, Ginsberg experienced the refugee crisis on his travels to India during the liberation war of Bangladesh in 1971. His famous poem “September on Jessore Road” describes the suffering of the refugees due to the genoci

Abstract:
In 1971, the civil war in the Pakistani state and consequent genocide in present Bangladesh (erstwhile East Pakistan) led to a great influx of refugees who were desperately crossing the porous borderlands of the eastern states of India. Despite the abject living conditions in the saturated refugee camps and the stringent regimentation of the youth camps and muktijoddhā (Liberation Warrior) training sectors in West Bengal, Tripura and Assam borderlands, the space inhabited by the refugees was charged with powerful national imaginaries laced with an eclectic blend of emotions – resistance, hope,

Abstract:
In 1971, India played a leading role in the liberation war of Bangladesh. At this time, a rare opportunity came before India to break the hostile state of Pakistan. For this, it was necessary to give full support to the liberation war of Bangladesh. But in the world reality of that time, it was not easy to intervene in the internal war of an independent state. It was not easy to get India's full cooperation from Bangladesh's side as well. Bangladesh's refugee influx eases this complex and dire situation. After World War II, the largest refugee crisis since then was caused by the influx of peop

Abstract:
Satire has been used widely to ridicule and criticize agents of oppression using literary tools like parody, irony, and exaggeration. In the wake of 9/11 2001, American neo-imperialist and global capitalist policies, effected through war, destabilized and destroyed many parts of the Middle East. However, this particular war also fused acts of violence with benevolence and aid. Pakistani Anglophone writer Mohammed Hanif’s novel Red Birds (2018), set in a refugee camp, uses multiple first-person narrators—representative of opposing sides—counter-realism, and multidirectional and referential sati

Abstract:
A global history of India’s refugee regime, this book explores how one of the first postcolonial states of the mid-twentieth-century wave of decolonisation rewrote practices surrounding refugees—signified by its refusal to sign the 1951 UN Refugee Convention. In broadening the scope of this decision well beyond the Partition of India, starting with the so-called ‘Wilsonian moment’ and extending to the 1970s, the refugee is placed within the postcolonial effort to address the inequalities of the subject-citizenship of the British Empire through the fullest realisation of self-determination.

The administration of President Richard Nixon presents several examples of how Nixon and his national security adviser, Henry Kissinger, used food aid as a tool to advance foreign policy goals that Congress was attempting to foreclose. This chapter discusses two such examples: (1) food aid to Thailand in 1971, intended to free other financial resources in support of Southeast Asian military purchases, and (2) White House intervention in food aid decisions involving East Pakistan/Bangladesh and India in the months after Pakistani leader General Yahya Kahn unleased military reprisals against Eas

Abstract:
This chapter explores India’s rejection of the 1971 East Pakistan refugee crisis as an extension of the unfinished project of Partition, instead placing it as a political issue of self-determination for the people of East Pakistan and the violation of their collective rights even as the UNHCR-led international community focused on apolitical humanitarianism. Despite a massive fundraising effort and coordinating international and transnational aid agencies, the UN operation ‘Focal Point’ failed to address what India saw as Pakistan pushing its ‘internal matter’ onto India, constituting a demogr

Abstract:
The first East Bengal crisis is perhaps the only time during the 1950s where India came close to an armed confrontation with an immediate neighbour. What makes this crisis even more interesting is that Nehru’s foreign policy authority at the apex was contested by powerful political rivals led by Vallabhbhai Patel who fiercely competed with the Prime Minister in shaping India’s strategy towards Pakistani intransigence on the question of atrocities against Hindus in East Bengal and the sudden exodus of refugees into India. More broadly, the 1950 crisis also reflects a historical pattern in India

Abstract:
This chapter traces the rise of Indira Gandhi in India, before turning to Pakistan’s political difficulties in the late 1960s. Elections in 1970 led Pakistan to its gravest political crisis since independence, and ultimately resulted in a brutal military campaign to repress East Pakistani political aspirations. That campaign in turn generated a large refugee crisis, giving India moral and pragmatic reasons to intervene in East Pakistan. Throughout the crisis, Pakistan’s military dictator, Yahya Khan, found his room for maneuver limited by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, complicating domestic and internat
