From the stories of Bangladeshi villagers grew the history of an unrecorded fracas in the mid-1950s. When a cow belonging to a Muslim farmer ate a plant belonging to his Hindu neighbour, there was launched a simple squabble that evolved by stages into a major confrontation. How the fighters understood the historic moment in which they lived, and how they translated change at the level of state into a new construction of power relations in the village are the subjects of the present paper. The case study on which it draws analyses transcripts of stories to engage questions about the formulation of community identity and conflict. |
