Fit to Practice: Empire, Race, Gender, and the Making of British Medicine, 1850-1980
ISBN: 9781580465816 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Fit to Practice proposes a new narrative of the making of the modern British medical profession, situating it in relation to the imperatives and tensions of national and imperial interests. The narrative is interwoven with the institutional history of the General Medical Council (GMC), the main regulatory body of the medical profession. The GMC's management of the medical register from 1858 to 1980 offers important insight into the political underpinning of the profession, particularly when it came to regulating who was fit to practice medicine, under what conditions, and where.

This book charts the history of artisan production and marketing in the Bombay Presidency from 1870 to 1960.

Based upon extensive archival research as well as numerous interviews with participants in the handloom and powerloom industries, this book explores the role of weavers, merchants, consumers, and laborers in the making of what the author calls -small-town capitalism.- By focusing on the...

Rhetoric and Ritual in Colonial India
ISBN: 9780520067257 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the rhetoric and ritual of Indian elites undercolonialism, focusing on the city of Surat in the Bombay Presidency. It particularly examines how local elites appropriated and modified the liberal representative discourse of Britain and thus fashioned a "public' culture that excluded the city's underclasses. Departing from traditional explanations that have seen this process as resulting from English education or radical transformations in society, Haynes emphasizes the importance of the unequal power relationship between the British and those Indians who struggled for...

Contesting Power: Everyday Resistance in South Asian Society & History
ISBN: 9780520075856 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Covering groups from peasants to urban laborers, and from women to merchants, the essays in this volume depict a rich variety of non-confrontational forms of resistance and contestatory behaviors that challenge our usual assumptions about the overt nature of resistance to dominant powerholders. Taken together, the essays suggest that a much wider range of socio-cultural practices must be taken into account if we wish to understand how the world of dominated groups is constrained, modified and conditioned by power relations. Topics range from the form of resistance represented by the...

Rethinking Markets in Modern India: Embedded Exchange and Contested Jurisdiction
ISBN: 9781108486781 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. To people operating in India's economy, actually existing markets are remarkably different from how planners and academics conceive them. From the outside, they appear as demarcated arenas of exchange bound by state-imposed rules. As historical and social realities, however, markets are dynamic, adaptative, and ambiguous spaces. This book delves into this intricate context, exploring Indian markets through the competition and collaboration of those who frame and participate in markets. Anchored in vivid case studies – from colonial property and advertising milieus to today's bazaar and...
