Verghese Explores A Subject Of Immense Global Significance - Pakistan, And Where It Is Positioned In Relation To India And The World. After A Brisk Overview Of The Events That Have Come To Define Post-Independence Pakistan - The Battle For Kashmir; The Integration Of Karat And Hyderabad Into India; The Creation Of Bangladesh - Verghese, Drawing From Rare Archival Material, Approaches Subjects That Have Long Been Contentious - The Indus Water Treaty, Siachen And A.Q. KhanS Dangerous Nuclear Forays. Even While Analyzing PakistanS Present-Day Plunge Into Internal Dissent, Self-Made Jihadi Extremism, Provincial Rivalry And Military Rule, Verghese Offers A Gentle Way Out Of The NationS Self-Made Dilemmas - By Encouraging Pakistan To Become More Than The Indian Other, And Urging It To Move Away From Fundamentalism And Embrace The Syncretic, Sufi-Infused Islam It Once Knew. B.G. VergheseS Last Book Is A Powerful Reminder That The Core Issue With Pakistan Is Not Kashmir - Rather, It Is The Lack Of A Clear Identity, The Absence Of A Positive Ideology, And The Reluctance Of The Nation To Fully Accept Its History.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rupa Publications India","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45888960692422,"sku":"DADAX8129135981","price":52.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/61KvLkOOpxL.jpg?v=1779964666","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/state-in-denial-pakistans-misguided-and-danger","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
