DESCRIPTION:South Asia Center Presents: Routine Emergencies: India's Armed 
 Forces Special Powers Act by Sanjib BaruahSome argue that India’s controve
 rsial Armed Forces Special Powers Act [AFSPA] permits a localized form of 
 de facto emergency rule. Its provisions include the power of the armed for
 ces to make preventive arrests\, to search premises without warrant\, to s
 hoot and kill civilians\; and it gives legal immunity to soldiers implicat
 ed in such actions. Efforts to challenge the law in Indian courts have bee
 n unsuccessful .This talk will discuss why the paradigm of the state of ex
 ception that has come to dominate the study of emergencies can neither exp
 lain the AFSPA regime\, nor provide an effective political strategy to res
 ist it.
