Using first-person accounts of Hindus and Muslims in a remote Bangladeshi village, Beth Roy evocatively describes and analyzes a large-scale riot that profoundly altered life in the area in the 1950's. She provides a rare glimpse into the hearts and minds of the participants and their families, while touching on a range of broader issues that are vital to the sociology of communities in conflict: the changing meaning of community; the impact of the state on local society; the nature of memory; and the force of neighborly enmity in reshaping power relationships during periods of change. Roy's findings illustrate important theoretical issues in psychology and sociology, and her conclusions will greatly interest students of ethnic/race relations, conflict resolution, the sociology of violence, agrarian society, and South Asia.CommunalismBangladeshHindusBangladeshMuslimsBangladesh1950s.agrarian society.analysis.asian history.bangladesh.community.conflict resolution.conflict.distribution of power.ethnicity.first person.hindu.interview.memory.muslim.neighbors.power structure.psychology.race relations.religion.religious studies.revolution.riot.small town.social change.sociology.south asia.true story.violence.CommunalismHindusMuslims303.6303.623Roy Beth1043234MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455375703321Some trouble with cows2468079UNINA
