The need for an “out of the box” thinking to resolve the India-Pakistan
dispute over Jammu and Kashmir finally seems to have dawned upon the
leadership on both sides. The potential for economic interdependence promises
much in terms of a breakthrough. The article highlights the key avenues for
cooperation between Indian and Pakistani Kashmir. We argue that future
cross-border economic collaboration through joint ventures and a social “spill
over” effect could create sufficient economic interdependence to pacify political
tensions. Key sectors identified for cooperation are natural resources, tourism,
power generation, transport, information technology, education, and poverty
alleviation. Although somewhat unique to literature on economic
interdependence, collaboration in these sectors presents the best opportunity to
ensure integration, which in turn could help pacify political tensions.
