Shafqat Hussain examines the surprisingly diverse ways the people of Hunza, a remote independent state in Pakistan, have been viewed by outsiders over the past century. He also explores the Hunza peoples perceptions of British colonialists, Pakistani state officials, modern-day Westerners, and others, and how the local people used their remote status strategically, ensuring their own interests were served as they engaged with the outside world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51729320902944,"sku":"NEW0300205554","price":101.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71Py1eEjF3L.jpg?v=1779428203","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/remoteness-and-modernity-transformation-and-continuity-in-northern-pakistan-yale-agrarian-studies-series-0300205554","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
