Northeast India: A Place of Relations focuses on encounters and experiences between people and cultures, the human and the non-human world, allowing for building of new relationships of friendship and amity in the region. The twelve essays in this volume explore the possibility of a new search enabling a "discovery" of the lived and the loved world of Northeast India from within. The volume employs a variety of perspectives and methodological approaches literary, historical, anthropological, interpretative politics and an analytical study of contemporary issues, engaging the people, cultures and histories in the Northeast with a new outlook. In the study, the region emerges as a place of new happenings in which there is the possibility of continuous expansion of the horizon of history and issues of current relevance facilitating new voices and narratives that circulate and create bonding in the borderland of South, East and Southeast Asia.
