  • The Naga Conflict
    B7-2012 NIAS Backgrounder M Amarjeet Singh THE NAGA CONFLICT NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ADVANCED STUDIES Bangalore, India BACKGROUNDERS ON CONFLICT RESOLUTION Series editor: Narendar Pani This series of backgrounders hopes to provide accessible and authentic overviews of specific conflicts that affect India, or have the potential to do so. It is a part of a larger effort by the Conflict Resolution Programme at the National Institute of Advanced Studies, Bangalore, to develop an inclusive knowledge base that would help effectively address major conflicts of interest to the country. In pursuit of this objective it carries out research that could help throw up fresh perspectives on conflict even as it develops mechanisms to increase awareness about the nature of specific crises.The backgrounders form an important part of the second exercise. The backgrounders are targeted at the intelligent layperson who requires a quick and yet reliable account of a specific conflict.These introductory overviews would be useful to administrators, media personnel and others seeking their first information on a particular conflict. It is also hoped that as the series grows it will act as an effective summary of scholarly information available on conflicts across the country. By their very nature these backgrounders attempt to provide a picture on which there is some measure of consensus among scholars. But we are quite aware that this is not always possible.The views expressed are those of the author(s); and not necessarily those of the National Institute of Advanced Studies.The dissemination of these backgrounders to all who may need them is an important part of the entire effort.
