Inhaltsangabe

The Muslim League first took up the Pakistan scheme in 1937. Jinnah invoked Mussolini's support, and even planned to overthrow the British Government with the help of Subhas Bose. The original resolution was amended with a view towards accomodating the Punjab's viewpoint. The provinces were ensured 'sovereignty' in the resolution, though subsequently they unanimously decided in favour of one Pakistan State, instead of two or more.

Über diesen Titel

Críticas

A well-documented and highly detailed history of the events leading to the resolutions in 1940/41 by the All-India Muslim League ... Scholars and students of the events leading up to Partition will find this book very helpful in bringing balance to a field where most studies are focused on the actions of the British and Congress. It should also go a long way in countering any lingering doubts that Partition was inevitable. (Asian Affairs)

The Making of the Pakistan Resolution has its relevance in the fact that there are very few studies on this period by South Asian scholars, particularly Pakistanis or Indians. (The Book Review South Asia Special, New Delhi)
