Citizenship, Nationalism and Refugeehood of Rohingyas in Southern Asia
Citizenship, Nationalism and Refugeehood of Rohingyas in Southern Asia[electronic resource] /edited by Nasreen Chowdhory, Biswajit Mohanty. - 1st ed. 2020. - XX, 235 p. 44 illus., 11 illus. in color.online resource.

Contextualising Citizenship, Nationalism and Refugeehood: The Case of Rohingya -- Precarity and the dilemma of citizenship of Rohingya -- Problematizing national identity: conceptualization of nationalism amongst Rohingya refugees -- Politics of Statelessness and Citizenship: Rohingyas Quest for ‘Home’ -- The Indian media and the Rohingya question -- ‘Maritime Ping-Pong?’: The Rohingyas on boat’ -- The Silence of Democracy: The question of Rohingyas in Myanmar.

This book provides an in-depth investigation of citizenship and nationalism in connection with the Rohingya community. It analyses the processes of production of statelessness in South Asia in general, and with regard to the Rohingyas in particular. Following the persecution of the Rohingya community in Myanmar (Burma) by the military and the Buddhist militia, a host of texts, mostly descriptive, have examined the historical, political and cultural roots of the genocidal massacre and the flight of its victims to South Asia and South-East Asian countries. The UNHCR reports describe the plight of Rohingyas during and after their journey, while other works focus on the political-economic roots of this ethnic conflict and its consequences for the Rohingyas. To date, very few theoretical insights have been provided on the Rohingya issue. This book seeks to fill that gap, and explores a dialogue between the state and its citizens and non-citizens that results in the production of statelessness. In theoretical terms, the book addresses the construction of citizens and non-citizens on the part of the state, and the process of symbolic othering, achieved through various state practices couched in terms of nationalism. Extensive case studies from India, Myanmar and Bangladesh provide the foundation for a robust theoretical argument. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to students, academics and researchers with a focus on political economy in South Asia in general and/or refugee studies in particular.
