The Nation's Tortured Body
This work presents a theoretical account of the Sikh diaspora and Sikh nationalism, arguing that the diaspora, rather than originating from the nation, has a major role in the nation's creation. The text focuses on the position of violence in the emergence of a transitional fight for Khalistan.
