However, Towards People's Histories in Pakistan aims to shift the focus from imagined nations to the histories of its people. The book brings together historians, anthropologists, sociologists, and political scientists to explore the diverse histories of the people themselves. By assembling histories of events and peoples missing from grand narratives of national history, the essays in this collection offer a variety of approaches to the past, revealing the possibilities of multiple histories, archives, and temporalities. The volume highlights the entangled nature of history and memory within Pakistan's social and cultural life and critically examines both leftist and nationalist thought. It explores competing visions of what constitutes the people and charts new ground in developing the promise of people's histories both within Pakistan and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781350261198\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44761451856122,"sku":"9781350261198","price":98.82,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1699623088913_book.jpg?v=1699778593","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/towards-peoples-histories-in-pakistan-inaudible-voices-forgotten-pasts-9781350261198","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
