| Formatted contents note | The year 1971 exists everywhere in Bangladesh it marks the birth of the nation, it's liberation. In Pakistan too, 1971 marks a watershed moment, remembered as the Fall of Dacca , the dismemberment of Pakistan or the third Indo-Pak war. In India, 1971 represents something else the story of humanitarian intervention, of triumph and valour that paved the way for India's rise as a military power. Navigating the terrain of 1971 across Pakistan, Bangladesh and India, Anam Zakaria juxtaposes state narratives with people's history, bringing forth the nuanced experiences of those who lived through the war. Using intergenerational interviews, textbook analyses, visits to schools and travels to museums and sites commemorating 1971, she explores the ways in which 1971 is remembered and forgotten across countries, generations and communities. The year 1971 exists everywhere in Bangladesh-on its roads, in sculptures, in its museums and oral history projects, in its curriculum, in people's homes and their stories, and in political discourse. It marks the birth of the nation, its liberation. More than 1000 miles away, in Pakistan too, 1971 marks a watershed moment, its memories sitting uncomfortably in public imagination. It is remembered as the 'Fall of Dacca', the dismemberment of Pakistan or the third Indo-Pak war. In India, 1971 represents something else-the story of humanitarian intervention, of triumph and valour that paved the way for India's rise as a military power, the beginning of its journey to becoming a regional superpower. Navigating the widely varied terrain that is 1971 across Pakistan, Bangladesh and India, Anam Zakaria sifts through three distinct state narratives, and studies the institutionalization of the memory of the year and its events. Through a personal journey, she juxtaposes state narratives with people's history on the ground, bringing forth the nuanced experiences of those who lived through the war. Using intergenerational interviews, textbook analyses, visits to schools and travels to museums and sites commemorating 1971, Zakaria explores the ways in which the year is remembered and forgotten across countries, |
