This paper focuses on India's northeast as the region of the earliest and longest-lasting insurgency in the country. In addition to providing background to the conflicts in the area, it describes the existence of two simultaneous but different kinds of peace processes: government talks with any insurgent groups, which may culminate in the signing of accords, and local level peace processes, which make coexistence of diverse people possible regardless of the conflicts that take place at the state or regional level.
