Reviews
'Navine Murshid has written a very important and timely book on how the Bengali Muslim is imagined, produced, and scapegoated as 'Bangladeshi' in India. Combining feminist methodology with fieldwork in West Bengal and Assam, Murshid offers a scathing criticism of the shared neoliberal drive for development between India and Bangladesh, while India isolates the human Bengali Muslim person into a threatening other and invisible citizen.'

Synopsis
Analyses the experience of Bengali Muslims on the India side of the India-Bangladesh border. Using the context of neoliberal policies, unequal bilateral relations, labour migration, contested citizenship and xenophobic government rhetoric, Murshid demonstrates that marginalization is based on a variety of historical, social and economic factors., In recent years, Bengali Muslims in India have faced harassment and scapegoating as the trope of the illegal Bangladeshi has gained political currency. India's Bangladesh Problem explores the experience of Bengali Muslims on the Indian side of the India-Bangladesh border in the context of neoliberal policies, unequal bilateral relations, labor migration, contested citizenship, and increasingly xenophobic government rhetoric. Drawing on extensive research in the borderlands and hinterlands of both countries, Navine Murshid argues that ever-deepening neoliberal policies across the border have shaped how certain ethnic groups are valued and have reconfigured social hierarchies. She provides new insights into the strategic inclusion, exclusion, and invisibility that characterizes Bengali Muslims' lives, rendering them a group susceptible to manipulation by virtue of their ethnic kinship to the majority of Bangladeshis. In turn, Bengali Muslims simultaneously resist and utilize received neoliberal ideas to sustain their lives and livelihoods at a time when neoliberal development has largely bypassed them.
