  • Impact of Memory and Post-Conflict Reconstruction Efforts in Mizoram
    Mizoram University Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences (A Bi-Annual Refereed Journal) Vol IV Issue 2, December 2018 ISSN: 2395-7352 eISSN:2581-6780 Impact of Memory and Post-Conflict Reconstruction Efforts in Mizoram Rohmingmawii Pachuau* Abstract The Mizo insurgency movement called Rambuai reigned over with chaos and turbulence from 1966-1986. The immediate reason for conflict in Mizoram was the dreadful “Mautam Famine” of 1959 and the consequent lack of state action to address the condition of the Mizoram district. The Mizoram insurgency broke out with the declaration of Mizoram independence from the Indian Union by the Mizo National Front. It spawned a full-fledged Uprising in 1966. The insurgency and counter insurgency measures adopted by the Indian Government brought severe misery and sufferings and left a deep psychological and emotional impact on the civilian population of the Mizos. The use of air force, sexual violence and grouping of villages in particular turned insurgency in the district to be the darkest period in the history of Mizoram. However, the biggest challenges faced by post-conflict societies are how to deal with and remember the crimes of the past. In many countries, clarification of historical memory of the past has become a cause for political debates and provoked tensions among social groups. Mizoram has not escaped the debate over historical memory of Rambuai. Nevertheless, in recent years, generations of Mizo researchers and scholars have addressed the ethnic movement from a myriad of theoretical and political perspectives to reconstruct and re-visit the untold memories. In pursuance of the growing effort, the paper will examine the post-conflict reconstruction efforts in Mizoram and the impact of memory upon the rebuilding process.
