Zusammenfassung:"While giants in the fields of ideology and religion lock horns over whether Pakistan was created as a motherland for subcontinental Muslims or as a model Islamic state, while students of politics dwell over the exigencies of power which necessitated the Partition, the quiet voice of Naureen Talha proposes an even more compelling though mundane reason for the split. According to her doctoral thesis, the Muslims had realized that after the collapse of their own centuries old rule in India, the economic factors in the country were going against them, and would continue to do so unless they could avoid the oppressive domination of the Hindus. It was this perception that prompted the educated and more affluent Indian Muslims to support the Muslim League's ideological demand for a separate Muslim homeland."--BOOK JACKET.
