In this paper I am interested in what claims of normalcy and the remaking of normal life signify for people affected by conflict and displacement.

While the conflict is understood in terms of competing South Asian nationalisms, I situate ‘normalcy’ in relation to contemporary studies of conflict and neo-liberalism.
