N2  - India's 'Maoist movement', erupting in the village of Naxalbari in 1967, claims to struggle for the rights of exploited tribal people and poor peasants. To Indian governments, however, the movement is fomented by crazed ideologues exploiting vulnerable citizens. Since 2003 when a landmine nearly killed the Chief Minister of the state of Andhra Pradesh, hundreds have died in intensified clashes between armed police, guerrillas and rival militias. Maoist ideas, organisations and history across South Asia; Social and economic conditions in regions of Maoist strength; Challenges facing Indian governments; Differing views on the nature and future of the struggles Maps drawn especially for More than Maoism, and pictures by leading photographers, enhance a book that will be read with interest and profit by anyone keen to understand the head-spinning social and economic changes that unsettle South Asia
