In this topical book, K.S. Subramanian:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Identifies patterns and trends in political violence in India; \u003cbr\u003e- Examines how the government’s political machinery has responded; \u003cbr\u003e- Explains why State response has been inadequate; and \u003cbr\u003e- Recommends changes in structures and attitudes. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author sketches the growing crisis of governance by assessing the Central and state governments’ police organisations, especially key central agencies such as the Intelligence Bureau, the Central Paramilitary Forces and the Union Ministry of Home Affairs. In case studies of regions and communities affected by political violence, he takes the reader behind the scenes—whether it is on police partisanship in the communal pogrom in Gujarat, the official approach to the Naxalite problem, the violence against dalits and adivasis, or the violation of human rights in northeast India.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith police reform being a major public concern, police research is gaining importance as a field of study. This book will appeal to students of criminal justice, political science, sociology, public policy and public administration, as well as policy makers, police and administrative officers, and human rights activists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePolitical Violence and State Response in India\u003cbr\u003eThe Indian Police System in Crisis\u003cbr\u003eIntelligence Bureau\u003cbr\u003eAn Instrument of Partisan Politics\u003cbr\u003eCentral Paramilitary Forces\u003cbr\u003eA Parallel Police Force?\u003cbr\u003eNaxalite Violence\u003cbr\u003eWhat Can the Union Home Ministry Do?\u003cbr\u003eViolence Against Dalits and Adivasis\u003cbr\u003eWhither Social Justice? \u003cbr\u003eState-Sponsored Violence Against the Muslims in Gujarat, 2002\u003cbr\u003eA Case Study in Police Partisanship\u003cbr\u003ePolitical Violence in the Northeast\u003cbr\u003eThe Human Rights of Ordinary People\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The India Club","offers":[{"title":"K S Subramanian \/ Sage Publications \/ Paperback","offer_id":40785710350505,"sku":"23177","price":28.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/1048\/4393\/products\/23177.jpg?v=1625526957","url":"https:\/\/indiaclub.com\/de\/products\/23177-political-violence-and-the-police-in-india","provider":"India Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
