‘Citizenship and Statelessness in Sri Lanka’ analyses the context of the agreement between the Sri Lankan and Indian government that led to the loss of citizenship of Indian Tamil estate workers in Sri Lanka. Kanapathipillai broadens the focus of scholarship in this area by examining the economic, political and ideological issues that had a bearing on policy decisions.
Valli Kanapathipillai completed her doctorate from the Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam in 2005. Previously she worked as consultant and researcher at the International Centre for Ethnic Studies, Colombo. She has also worked as a consultant for several NGOs on projects connected to the Tamil estate workers in Sri Lanka. Her publications include ‘Victims of July ‘83’ in ‘Mirrors of Violence’, edited by Professor Veena Das (Delhi, 1990).
