Reorientation in a Post-Violence Landscape -- Regional Orientations: The Charotar Sunni Vohras -- Rural-Urban Transitions: From the Village to the Segregated Town -- Uprooted and at Home: Transnational Routes of (No) Return -- Getting Around: Middle-class Muslims in a Regional Town -- Conclusion. New Lives, New Concepts."In 2002 widespread communal violence tore apart hundreds of towns and villages in rural parts of Gujarat, India. In the aftermath, many Muslims living in Hindu-majority villages sought safety in the small town of Anand, some relocating with the financial assistance of their relatives overseas. Following such dramatic displacement and disorientation, Anand emerged as a site of opportunity and hope. For its residents and transnational visitors, Anand's Muslim area is not just a site of marginalization; it has become an important focal point and regional center from which they can participate in the wider community of Gujarat and reimagine society in more inclusive terms. This compelling ethnography shows how in Anand the experience of residential segregation led not to estrangement or closure but to distinctive practices of mobility and exchange that embed Muslim residents in a variety of social networks. In doing so, New Lives in Anand moves beyond established notions of ghettoization to foreground the places, practices, and narratives that are significant to the people of Anand. It asks how people get on with their lives after an episode of violence to create new spaces and societies and to reconfigure their sense of belonging"--Provided by publisher.Global South Asia.MuslimsSocial life and customsfast(OCoLC)fst01031071MuslimsSocial conditionsfast(OCoLC)fst01031070Ethnic relationsfast(OCoLC)fst00916005Gujarat Riots, India, 2002MuslimsViolence againstIndiaGujaratMuslimsIndiaĀnandSocial life and customsMuslimsIndiaĀnandSocial conditions21st centuryIndiaGujaratfastIndiaĀnandfastĀnand (India)Ethnic relationsMuslimsSocial life and customs.MuslimsSocial conditions.Ethnic relations.Gujarat Riots, India, 2002.MuslimsViolence againstMuslimsSocial life and customs.MuslimsSocial conditions305.697095475Verstappen Sanderien1216864MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910552750703321New Lives in Anand2813657UNINA
