This book examines India’s settler/colonial rule in Kashmir through historical and contemporary settler/colonial geopolitics. Analysing Kashmir’s place in the geopolitical settler/colonial world order and ecological catastrophe, the book contributes to pressing debates regarding current planetary crises. -- .
Sovereignty, catastrophe, Indigeneity examines Indian rule in occupied Jammu and Kashmir through settler/colonial geopolitics. Engaging with settler colonial, decolonial and Indigenous studies, the book explores how European sovereignty was shaped by settler/colonialism. Settler/colonialism was catastrophic for Indigenous worlds and generated the climate crisis. The book explores how India draws on settler/colonialism’s catastrophic mechanisms to rule Kashmir, thus fuelling the climate crisis and participating in the geopolitical settler/colonial world order. Sites of analysis include the India China rivalry, Kashmir’s political economy, and India’s indigenisation of its Hindu sacred geography in Kashmir. Through this exploration, the author argues for asserting Kashmiri resistance as an Indigenous anti-colonial struggle. The intersections between sovereignty, catastrophe, Indigeneity, and ecology, illuminate Kashmir’s place in the geopolitical settler/colonial world order. The book contributes to timely debates regarding settler/colonialism and planetary crises. -- .
