Sri Lanka's civil war ended in 2009, but ethnonationalism remains a powerful force in the country's politics. Professor Mythri Jegathesan traces the country's present crisis to its recent history in the second episode of a special TRNN two-part series on Sri Lanka.

Dr. Mythri Jegathesan is a professor of anthropology at Santa Clara University. She is the author of Tea and Solidarity: Tamil Women and Work in Postwar Sri Lanka.
