By the 1990s, ethnic politics had come to dominate Sindh, with calls for Karachi to become a fifth province in its right. "Life After Partition" examines the historical background to these developments, by focusing on events in the province in the years immediately following partition, when migrants from India and local people in Sindh found themselves, living alongside each other on the newly created state of Pakistan. How far they retained distinctive notions of community and identity, and what its impact was on processes of accommodation and integration, forms the main focus of this study of life in Sindh between 1947 and 1962.
