DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The story of human migration is as old as the story of Homo sapiens. The innate tendency to survive and achieve better living conditions has proved to be an unending process. The ethnic groups with a very high growth of population have spread out all over the world for more living space spawning unforeseen socio-economic and socio-political unrest and conflict. Most prominent in this regard have been the migration from China and Bangladesh that has continued with increasing momentum since the past several decades. Operation Lebensraum: Illegal Immigration from Bangladesh discusses the entire gamut of migration from Bangladesh into India with a focus on Assam – its origins during the colonial period and continuance during the post-Independence phase, impact, the government's failures to comprehend the nature of the problem and the ways and means to tackle the phenomenon which has already assumed an uncontrollable proportion and fuelled large scale disturbances. The book also draws a comparison of the episode with similar events around the world and especially the policies of the US government in tackling illegal migration from Mexico.

Her body remained hung on the fence as a warning to those who illegally crossed an international border. Migration to India from the current geographical and political entity called Bangladesh is more than a century old and had begun long before the nation states were created in South Asia. Often termed as ‘foreigners’ and ‘infiltrators’, Bangladeshi migrants such as Felani find their way into India for the promise of a better future. Post 1971, there has been a steady movement of people from Bangladesh into India, both as refugees and for economic need, making this migration a complex area of inquiry. This book focuses on the contemporary issue of undocumented Bangladeshi migration to the three Indian states of Assam, West Bengal, and Delhi, and how the migrants are perceived in light of the ongoing discourses on the various nationalisms in India. Each state has a unique history and has taken different measures to respond to Bangladeshi migrants present in the state. Based on extensive fieldwork and insightful interviews with influential members from key political parties, civil society organizations, and Hindu and ethnic nationalist bodies in these states, the book explores the place and role of Bangladeshi migrants in relation to the inherent tension of Indian nationalism.

After the latest exodus from Myanmar in 2017, there are now more than half a million Rohingya in Bangladesh living in camps, often in conditions of abject poverty, malnutrition and without proper access to shelter or work permits. Some of them are now compelled to take to the seas in perilous journeys to the Southeast Asian countries in search of a better life. They are now asked to go back to Myanmar, but without any promise of citizenship or an end to discrimination. This book looks at the Rohingya in the South Asian region, primarily India and Bangladesh. It explores the broader picture of the historical and political dimensions of the Rohingya crisis, and examines subjects of statelessness, human rights and humanitarian protection of these victims of forced migration. Further, it chronicles the actual process of emergence of a stateless community – the transformation of a national group into a stateless existence without basic rights.
