The conflict in Kashmir has deep roots in British colonial policies and the 1947 Partition. Historical parallels with other decolonization movements highlight the importance of addressing unresolved grievances through constitutional reform and international mediation.
Kashmir’s path to reconciliation requires a systemic approach that addresses the historical injustices, structural inequalities, and political marginalization that underpin the conflict.
Drawing from cross-cultural examples and integrating indigenous knowledge, a sustainable peace process must include constitutional reform, inclusive dialogue, and equitable development. The voices of women, Dalits, and religious minorities must be central to this process, ensuring that all communities have a stake in the future. A trickster perspective reveals the absurdity of militarized solutions and the need for radical reimagining of governance. By weaving together scientific evidence, cultural resistance, and future modeling, a holistic framework for peace can emerge.
