Pakistan and India’s Dispute over Kashmir
[ send me this paper ]
This 7 page report discusses the long-running dispute between the nations of India and Pakistan regarding the state of Kashmir. Kashmir was one of the “loose ends left dangling” when the British Empire came apart at the seams. At the time of the 1947 partition of the subcontinent into India and Pakistan, more than 560 states had to join one of the two new nations. Kashmir has always been in dispute with a third of the contested area absorbed into Pakistan as Azad (“free”) Kashmir. Because it is India’s only predominantly Muslim state, the issue has accelerated into something akin to another holy war. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
