Imperial Power and Popular Politics: Class, Resistance and the State in India, 1850-1950
ISBN: 9780521592345 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Raj Chandavarkar offers a powerful revisionist analysis of the relationship between class and politics in India between the Mutiny and Independence.

This work represents a major contribution not only to the history of the Indian working classes, but to the history of industrial capitalism and colonialism as a whole.

Environment and Ethnicity in India, 1200-1991

Drawing on a rich collection of sources, Sumit Guha demonstrates how the ideology of indigenous cultures, developed in recent years out of the notion of a pure and untouched ethnicity, is in fact rooted in nineteenth-century racial and colonial anthropology. Challenging this view, he traces the processes by which the apparently immutable identities of South Asian populations took shape, and how these populations interacted with civilizations beyond their immediate vicinity. His penetrating critique will make a significant contribution to the history of South Asia and to the literature on...

Hindu Kingship and Polity in Precolonial India
ISBN: 9780521465489 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Norbert Peabody analyzes changes to the foundations of royal power in the Rajasthani kingdom of Kota during the late precolonial and early colonial eras. Peabody charts these changes in relation to broader socio-economic transformations within the larger royal polity. He concludes that different societies not only establish different co-ordinates of value in their constructions of the past, but also that the very processes of social and political transformation differ from society to society.

The Politics of the Urban Poor in Early Twentieth-Century India
ISBN: 9780521617130 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Nandini Gooptu's magisterial history of the Indian urban poor represents a tour-de-force. By focusing on the role of the poor in caste, religious and national politics, the author demonstrates how they emerged as a major social factor in South Asia during the interwar period. The empirical material provides compelling insights into what it meant to be poor and how the impoverished dealt with their predicament. In this way, the book contributes to some of the most crucial debates on the nature of subaltern politics and consciousness.
