| book description |

This volume explores the rich pre-history, history, and oral history of the northeast region of Indiaâ€“â€“a land-locked region that is home to over 350 ethnolinguistic communities. Despite its uniqueness and diversity, little is known to the outside world. The book studies the vibrant and diverse socio-political and cultural history of this region through a transdisciplinary perspective, covering a wide range of topics such as the pre-history, medieval and colonial histories of Assam, the geopolitics of the creation of independent states from undivided Assam, oral narratives from Manipur, prehistoric cultures of Meghalaya, the Naga National Movement, Sikkimâ€™s Namgyal dynasty, and Tripuraâ€™s transition from monarchy to democracy. It also discusses the invaluable contributions made by Professor Mohammad Taher (1931â€“2015), who laid the foundation of geography in Northeast India. A compelling exploration of this geo-politically contested space, this volume will be of interest to students and researchers of anthropology, archaeology, history, human geography, South Asian studies, and minority studies.
