- Double-weighted statement
- A 98k word monograph based on three years' fulltime research in nine archives across four countries, including inaccessible provincial archives in Pakistan and India. It collects and analyses a large body of new source material. This sustained research effort enabled a conceptually innovative argument, representing the first piece of sustained historical research on the topic and the first attempt to use the interdisciplinary theory of territoriality to explain an international river-water dispute. The submission has significant implications for histories of international relations, and water history, as well as for modern South Asian and decolonization history.
