Nagaland: A Journey to India's Forgotten Frontier by Jonathan Glancey

The book is a very detailed introduction to Nagaland, ideal for people with little or no background knowledge of the troubled region.

There are two problems with India, its aggressive insistence on patriotism from each minority which intertwines dangerously with the lack of desire to deal with communal-ism. India refuses to deal with any community differences, preferring to hide behind nationalistic wall. And this nationalism is pretty much tinged in a Hindu culture. Just to quote from the book, 'If India were to open the borders of Nagaland to foreigners, it would very probably be for the better rather for the worse. There will never be a flood of tourists to this difficult if bewitching terrain, and yet an exchange of ideas, dreams, values, medical aid and joint-venture projects between Nagas and people from different corners of the world could well enable it to feel less persecuted, less suspicious of outside influences, and even allow it to flourish.'

For me the Indian policy of pumping people and money into Nagaland is working along-with the severe infighting between various Naga militias.
