Sociology; Domestic trade

This book analyses the cross-border transactions in North-East India, with particular focus on the Tripura-Bangladesh border. It explores the inter-relationship between community, state and market, and also discusses the spatial identity of Tripura in pre and post-partition era and the implications of partition and border-making to the cross-border communities of Tripura and Bangladesh. It reflects on trade transactions between India and Bangladesh and more significantly, on informal cross-border trade, social transactions and people-to-people contact across the border.

The subject matter in this book also captures the community anxieties emerging from land boundary institutions and the issues of conflict and development in the cross-border space of Tripura-Bangladesh. It also discusses the dynamics of community inter-dependence and opposition in the post-partition condition in the Tripura and Bangladesh.
