"The book surveys the current status of
210 nations that are not states, and which are not recognized by major countries as being
independent political entities. Appendices list declarations of independence by nonstate

Joyce Pettigrew ed. Martyrdom
and Political Resistance : Essays from Asia and Europe (Comparative Asian
Studies, 18) published
by VU University Press for Centre Asian Studies, Amsterdam and is essential reading for those
seeking to further their understanding of the continuing struggles for freedom in many parts
of the world.
From the Preface: "New nations are formed within
post-colonial states and old nations gain their freedom from recent
empires. At a time like that, it seems pertinent to consider the role of
traditions of martyrdom in shaping and sustaining political resistance.
This collection of essays, dealing among others with Sikhs in the Punjab.
Tamil Tigers in Sri Lanka and the IRA in Northern Ireland. explores the
social variables that allow the martyr’s sacrifice to be effectively
utilized by a political movement. The essays consider how various forms of
social association as well as religious and historical tradition influence
the place of the martyr in a resistance struggle and describe the
differing social and political processes that affect martyr
authentication."
