Peoples History Of Punjab

This book defies traditional narratives of Punjab’s history by shifting focus from kings and empires to the lived experiences of its people. Through their everyday labour, folk songs, romances, struggles against oppression, and unyielding hopes, the author weaves together a vibrant tapestry of the region’s past. Employing a multidisciplinary lens - spanning politics, history, genetics, archaeology, and linguistics - the work traces not just Punjab’s socioeconomic and political evolution but also its ideological transformations. By unearthing overlooked perspectives, from grassroots cultural expressions to systemic exploitation, this groundbreaking study redefines Punjab’s historiography, offering fresh insights for scholars and general readers alike.
