The Violence of Boundaries
Morung Express Editorial | March 17:
Re-establishing dignified relationships and critical solidarity are essential if the Northeast region is going to live a shared humanity that is essential for the freedom and equal rights of all peoples. The questions of boundaries can be addressed more meaningfully in the interest of a shared humanity, only when the State boundaries are perceived as being soft overlapping spheres of shared influence, rather than a rigid line which cannot be altered.
The people of the region and the Naga in particular, will have to question and discern for themselves, whether their political aspiration is to create another hegemonic State; or whether their political imagination will allow them to create an alternative sovereign unconstructured State that reflects the values of consent, full participation and justice. By this, it implies re-arranging the present districts; and perhaps even creating new ones and renaming them in accordance to the values of self-definition.
