Nishkula Suntharalingam, presenting a book review in Asian Affairs 2023 \u2026.. https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/loi\/raaf20 \u2026.<\/a> of the book by Moyukh Chatterjee. Composing Violence: The Limits of Exposure and the Making of Minorities. Duke University Press, Durham, 2023. pp. 166. Notes. Bibliog. Index. Ackmts. Hb. $94.95. ISBN 9781478017028. Sb. \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.$24.95. ISBN 9781478019664<\/span><\/p>\n

Moyukh Chatterjee was an eyewitness to the aftermath of the 2002 riots in the west Indian state of Gujarat; three days of communal violence during which Hindu mobs attacked Muslims, their businesses and homes, leaving over a thousand people dead. This book focuses on how and why, in multi-ethnic, democratic states like India, targeted violence and anti-minority politics persist. In doing so, the author suggests an alternate approach to understanding violence against minorities while raising disquieting questions about the formation of modern states and the ways that ideas of \u201cminorities\u201d and \u201cmajorities\u201d are produced and reproduced.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chatterjee\u2019s research over the past 20 years has included interacting with, and collecting testimony from, survivors and witnesses of the 2002 pogrom. He has accompanied them to the courts, while also engaging and following up with human rights activists. His book analyses the per- sistent and recurring challenges faced by Muslim victims to gain justice from the Gujarat legal system. Accordingly, Chatterjee documents the state\u2019s intended\/unintended role in shaping police reporting, trials, public culture and media coverage that \u201cfragment shifting formations of peoples into majorities and minorities\u201d (p. 28).<\/span><\/p>\n

The lack of action by the, apparently unaccountable, Gujarati authorities to redress the 2002 violence over more than a decade leads Chatterjee to emphasise the limitations of \u201cexposure\u201d as an approach (pp. 5\u201311). He stresses the challenges of characterising anti-minority violence as a breakdown, interruption or exception by drawing attention to the histories of pogroms in America (against Blacks), Europe (against Jews and Muslims), South-East Asia (for example, against the Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar) and South Asia (Tamils in Sri Lanka, Sikhs and Muslims in India). Instead, Chatterjee proposes a more deconstructed approach of \u201ccomposing violence\u201d. In his analysis, \u201ccomposition\u201d describes \u201chow violence persists, motivates, and animates social and political life behind the scene of horror\u201d (p. 8). His lines of inquiry ask: what forms of law, \u201caffect\u201d and politics transform violence against minorities into durable forms of rule of law? What can the Indian example tell us about the power of reactions to public violence against minorities to act as a catalyst for the creation of a permanent majority and the Muslims in India into permanent minorities and \u201coutsiders\u201d?<\/span><\/p>\n

To \u201ccompose the violence\u201d Chatterjee focuses on the legal infrastructure of the state including the ways that police report incidents and witnesses and victims give testimony, the processes of law and the courtroom describing them as \u201cperformances that delay and defer and outlive the event\u201d (p. 21). Consequently, in chapters 2 through 5, he analyses the police archive, first incident reports, witness statements, trials of the lower courts of Ahmedabad, while engaging with activist NGOs and sur- vivors of the violence, both male and female. He draws attention to the systemic and repetitive difficulties of drafting first incident reports by police, whether as individual complaints or as an omnibus report, and exposes the challenges of Muslim witnesses testifying in courtrooms against their Hindu neighbours and the police. Chatterjee also showcases the procedural delays including the filing of reports, going to courts, the waiting and witnessing trials that contributes to the infrastructure of min- oritising Muslims in India and their sense of belonging.<\/span><\/p>\n

The book provides significant insights into the ways the Gujarati authorities made use of the communal violence to produce and reproduce a relationship between Muslim minorities and Hindu majorities that is intertwined with the political struggle of belonging and citizenship in India more widely. Chatterjee\u2019s argument, that democracy (free and fair elections, rule of law, due process) institutes a relationship between population numbers and power that locks societies into a trajectory of either minority or majority rule, merits closer review through case studies of other locales.<\/span><\/p>\n
