Recs if you like The Other Side of Silence: Voices from the Partition of India...

These books are about the partition that took place between Pakistan and India in 1947. Some were recommended through a video by rozanawithrida on Instagram. I haven’t read any of these personally, but have seen the TV drama Dastaan that was inspired by the book Bano. I’ve personally heard family stories about the partition and its many difficulties and heartbreaks, and created this list with a hope to learn more

most of these are recommendations from many of my final year modules of my history degree which focused mostly on Asian and British History and histories of migration with a post-colonial, socio-cultural approach. some are also just history books that’s I think everyone should read

Ethnography is a research method primarily used in social and behavioral sciences to gain a deeper understanding of human behaviors, motivations, cultures, and interactions. This list contains only ethnographies written by anthropologists/sociologists covering multiple sub-disciplines. Also included are meta books discussing ethnographic research itself.
