Kashmir's Right to Self-determination: A Legal and Normative Reappraisal examines the legal criteria for self-determination. It applies the criteria to Kashmir's case to determine how it suits Kashmiris after India revoked their special status on August 5th, 2019. This book is international and global in its approach, content and subject. This legal and normative reappraisal takes a fresh look at new self-determination in the drastically transformed Jammu and Kashmir from a semi-autonomous to a non-autonomous region, having lost its territorial integrity in the name of reorganisation carried out by the fascist government of the BJP. The leading theme in this book is how the revocation of Kashmir's special status by India could create legal consequences for the parent Indian State under international law and the Indian Constitution. The volume examines why the legal and normative study of the Kashmir issue is crucial when India has revoked the special status of Kashmir enshrined in articles 370 and 35A of the Indian Constitution. The argument considers the changing regional situation of American withdrawal from Afghanistan, Taliban takeover, emerging trends in international terrorism and resurgent Hindu extremism in the shape of BJP's anti-Muslim policies.
