In the book, the issue of peaceful social development is defined as the conditions under which the maintenance of social order and social development is achieved - not by violent compulsion but through the negotiation of intentions or interests among members of society. The book assesses the issue of peaceful social development and demonstrates that the maintenance of such conditions for long periods is a necessary requirement for the political, economic, and cultural development of a society and state. Chapters argue that, through the post-colonial historical trajectory of South Asia, it has become commonly understood that democracy is the better, if not the best, political system and value for that purpose. Additionally, the book claims that, while democratization and the deepening of democracy have been broadly discussed in the region, the peace that democracy is supposed to promote has been in serious danger, especially in the 21st century. A timely survey and re-evaluation of democracy and peaceful development in South Asia, this book will be of interest to academics in the field of South Asian Studies, Peace and Conflict Studies and Asian Politics and Security. 410 0$aRoutledge new horizons in South Asian studies. 606 $aDemocracy$zSouth Asia 606 $aSocial movements$zSouth Asia 607 $aSouth Asia$xPolitics and government 607 $aSouth Asia$xSocial conditions 610 $aConflict 610 $aDemocracy 610 $aPeace 610 $aSouth Asia 615 0$aDemocracy 615 0$aSocial movements 676 $a320.954 676 $a303.660954 700 $aMio$b Minoru$4edt$01208576 702 $aNakamizo$b Kazuya$f1970- 702 $aTatsuro$b Fuzikura 702 $aMio$b Minoru 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476760103321 996 $aDYNAMICS OF CONFLICT AND PEACE IN CONTEMPORARY SOUTH ASIA$93379319 997 $aUNINA
