This comprehensive book delves into the concept, true value, and function of democracy in South Asia, taking into account the real social conditions that underpin its promotion of peaceful development in the region. Peaceful social development is defined as the conditions under which social order and development are achieved through the negotiation of intentions or interests among society members, rather than through violent compulsion. The book assesses the issue of peaceful social development and highlights its crucial role in the political, economic, and cultural development of societies and states.
Chapters within the book argue that, over the post-colonial historical trajectory of South Asia, democracy has emerged as the preferred, if not the best, political system for achieving this purpose. Furthermore, while democratization and the deepening of democracy have been widely discussed in the region, the peace that democracy is supposed to promote has been seriously threatened, particularly in the 21st century.
In light of this, this book serves as a timely survey and re-evaluation of democracy and peaceful development in South Asia. It will be of interest to academics specializing in South Asian Studies, Peace and Conflict Studies, and Asian Politics and Security. By examining the complexities and challenges faced by the region, this book offers valuable insights into the ongoing quest for a more inclusive, peaceful, and prosperous South Asia.
