Summary/Abstract |
In the wake of a terrorist attack on Parliament House in New Delhi in 2001, India mobilized its armies along its western frontiers, and threatened to go to war with Pakistan. In the event, India did not go to war, although none of its key demands--an end to cross-border terrorism, for example, or the return of twenty terrorists claimed to be harbored by Pakistan--were met. This article examines the backdrop to the military of crisis of 2001-2002, in particular the long series of war threats made by India in response to Pakistani sub-conventional warfare in Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir. It argues that neither war threats nor physical fencing of India's frontiers have deterred this subconventional warfare, and that alternate means have to be found to contain it.

Summary/Abstract |
This article argues there is a need for a more nuanced analysis of terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir than has been available so far. First, the popular legitimacy of violent groups has little bearing on their operation. Rather, the keys to the intensity of terrorist activity are held by Pakistan's military establishment. Second, the supposedly secular-nationalist movement of the early 1990s was in fact deeply Islamist in character; there has been a greater unity of thought underpinning terrorism than the literature admits. Finally, the article argues, the operation of terrorism needs to be read not simply in the limited context of Jammu and Kashmir, but as part of a larger South Asian crisis of identity.

Summary/Abstract |
The present paper seeks to provide a detailed overview of new Islamist terror groups that have emerged across India. Operating outside Jammu and Kashmir, these groups are in the main made up of Indian nationals. Since 2001, when violence in Jammu and Kashmir began to decline, these new groups have engaged in a sustained campaign of terrorism through India. Operating with the infrastructural assistance of Pakistan-based and Bangladesh-based organisations like the Lashkar-e-Taiba and the Harkat ul-Jihad-e-Islami, the groups wage what might be described as a 'Well-Tempered Jihad': a campaign that keeps up Islamist pressure on the Indian state, whilst stopping short of inducing a major crisis involving the region's nation-states. The paper explores the relationship of this new jihad with state and non-state actors both in India and Pakistan, and argues that their growth has been driven by political circumstances in both countries.
