Publisher's Synopsis
This volume is a compilation of essays chronicling the various aspects of the Maoist movement in the state of Andhra Pradesh in India. Though Andhra Pradesh occupies a major place in the Maoist movement, a commensurate and comprehensive account on the origin and growth of the movement is not available. This book provides a comprehensive narration of the multi-layered movement through the different sections: the Context of the movement, the movement as a Peoples Movement, the Repression, the Culture, and also includes notes on some of the departed enthusiasts of the Maoist movement, like R.S. Rao, Cherabandaraju, K.G. Kannabiran and Cherukuri Rajkumar, among others. The book would be an appealing read for subject experts as well as general readers.
