The lecture was about my seasons of field work in the Karakorum Himalaya. Norton Ginsberg, the director of the Institute, alerted me to the fact that the Encyclopedia Britannica would be revising their entries on Asian mountains shortly and suggested that I update the Karakorum entry. The eventual publication of that entry under my name (Allan 1992), however, omitted most of the literature references I had accumulated. As my reference list continued to expand I decided to order them in some coherent fashion and publish them as a sourcebook to coincide with the IUCN workshop on mountain protected areas in Skardu in September 1994.

  • Boundaries and Space in Gilgit-Baltistan Hermann Kreutzmann*
    Contemporary South Asia, 2015 Vol. 23, No. 3, 276–291, http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/09584935.2015.1040733 Boundaries and space in Gilgit-Baltistan Hermann Kreutzmann* Centre for Development Studies, Institute of Geographic Sciences, Freie Universität Berlin, GeoCampus Lankwitz, Malteserstr. 74–100, Berlin 12249, Germany Boundary-making in the Karakoram–Himalayan borderlands has found a diverse set of actors and expressions over time. Legacies from colonial borders are part of contemporary disputes about affiliation, participation, and space. Three aspects are addressed in this paper: first, the debate about ‘natural’ and ‘scientific’ boundaries for purposes of colonial territorial acquisition; second, postcolonial debates in the recent renaming game in Gilgit-Baltistan and its implications; and third, the attitudes of actors in exile and geopolitical players claiming to represent the aspirations of the inhabitants of Gilgit-Baltistan. The three perspectives reveal opportunities and constraints in border regimes that reflect power structures, internal and external modes of interference, and participation. Keywords: Kashmir; Pakistan; conflict; colonial legacy; disputed territory Introduction Spatial perceptions and territorial divisions have changed significantly over time. Various actors have entered the stage: some colonial and postcolonial exponents have been driven by external interests, others are embedded in local politics and economies of exchange. Brenner (1999, 40) has stated that ‘globalization researchers have begun to deploy a barrage of distinctively geographical prefixes – e.g. “sub-”, “supra-”, “trans-”, “meso-”, and “inter-”, – to describe various emergent social processes that appear to operate below, above, beyond, or between entrenched geopolitical boundaries’. By over- coming a state-centrist perspective, he argues that a new global perspective leads to ‘the production of new configurations of territoriality on both sub- and supra-national geo- Downloaded by [FU Berlin] at 06:15 24 October 2015 graphical scales’ (Brenner 1999, 41).
