{"product_id":"sensitive-space-jason-cons-9780295995526","title":"Sensitive Space: Fragmented Territory at the India-Bangladesh Border","description":"\u003cp\u003eEnclaves along the India-Bangladesh border have posed conceptual and pragmatic challenges to both states since Partition in 1947. These pieces of India inside of Bangladesh, and vice versa, are spaces in which national security, belonging, and control are shown in sharp relief. Through ethnographic and historical analysis, Jason Cons argues that these spaces are key locations for rethinking the production of territory in South Asia today.\u003ci\u003e Sensitive Space\u003c\/i\u003e examines the ways that these areas mark a range of anxieties over territory, land, and national survival and lead us to consider why certain places emerge as contentious, and often violent, spaces at the margins of nation and state.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOffering lessons for the study of enclaves, lines of control, restricted areas, gray spaces, and other geographic anomalies, \u003ci\u003eSensitive Space\u003c\/i\u003e develops frameworks for understanding the persistent confusions of land, community, and belonging in border zones. It further provides ways to think past the categories of sovereignty and identity to reimagine territory in South Asia and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jason Cons\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0295995521\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780295995526\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Washington Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2016","brand":"Jason Cons","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064817758463,"sku":"9780295995526","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9188eedf-06ab-442e-b23e-4abdb245ab23.jpg?v=1768671229","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sensitive-space-jason-cons-9780295995526","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
