Conflict and Community in Contemporary Sri Lanka: Pearl of the East' or the 'Island of Tears?
Synopsis
Sri Lanka, known worldwide as the 'Pearl of the East', is today attracting adverse international attention through reports of ethnic violence and endless Guerilla warfare. This collection of essays provides a critical but humanistic perspective on the various dimensions of the on-going ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka.
