Description
Description
South Asia is often seen as chaotic, volatile and even undemocratic. But former Chief Election Commissioner of India S.Y. Quraishi argues in Democracy’s Heartland that no other region has embraced the democratic experiment as fully, or as fiercely, as South Asia. From India’s electoral juggernaut to Pakistan’s power struggles, Bangladesh’s voter resilience to Nepal’s constitutional churn, Afghanistan’s downslide to Bhutan’s hesitant first steps, Quraishi offers a comparative tour of the subcontinent’s democracies, warts, wonders and all. Drawing on decades of first-hand experience, he combines sharp analysis with untold stories from the front lines of elections across the region. What emerges is a definitive account of how democracy survives, adapts and even thrives in South Asia despite the odds. Bold, original and deeply informed, Democracy’s Heartland repositions the region as democracy’s most vital and contested terrain.
