The Armed Forces Special Power Act (AFSPA) is subjected to a discourse by the civil society and public in a largely negative undertone. The need to assess the aims of the Constitution of India and how the task of assimilation of the nation is being carried out will put the AFSPA in the correct perspective. However a fresh look at the Act in the light of the "State in Society" Approach of Migdal puts the Act in a different and positive perspective in spite of all its misgivings and criticism of human rights abuse.Keywords
