ABOUT THE BOOK
This book provides an insight into the issue of health inequity
brought about by the violent conflict in Northeast India. While examining the
deep vulnerabilities and loss of well-being suffered by families displaced by
conflict in the Indo-Bhutan borderland region, the authors raise fundamental
questions of accountability and the role of various stakeholders in providing
humanitarian assistance to those affected by the conflict. It highlights for
the reader the role played by conflict and armed violence in dismantling a
functioning public health system and delineates the long-term barriers to
post-conflict recovery. The book is written by those who have worked in
implementing development and peacebuilding programs in the Bodoland Territorial
Region (BTR) of Western Assam. The book especially brings to the fore the
voices of those communities directly affected by conflict in Bodoland. The book
is valuable to researchers, development practioners and policy makers. Given
the unique format of the book, which includes a number of case studies, it is
particularly useful for students of development, public health and allied
disciplines such as international relations as well as peace and conflict
studies.
