Recenzje

'Murshid lays bare the marginalization of Bengali Muslims, Indian and Bangladeshi, in contemporary India-and different forms of resistance to this abjection. Based on deep research of national, state-level, and local interactions, this book compels us to rethink our understanding of neoliberalism, borders, identity, and citizenship in and beyond South Asia.'
