Book Summary of Justice Before Reconciliation
The book explores how Muslims in Mumbai and Ahmedabad coped with the aftermath of the violence directed against them in 1993 and 2002 respectively, and how they responded to the ethnic carnages of which they were the victims, thus highlighting the importance of the context and the history of the place where such violence occurs.

Unlike other studies on ethnic violence that have a short-term focus - dealing mostly with its immediate aftermath - this book examines what happens to the victims over time, how they negotiate a `new normal` and get on with their lives. Using empirical material based on fieldwork in Mumbai and Ahmedabad, the book shows that while poverty, education and employment remain important elements in the process of recovery, the most crucial issue is that of justice and the need to reclaim citizenship.
