Description

This course explores the formation and transformation of colonial systems of control, administration and governance of South Asia and Indian participation in this process from 1857 to 1947. The course begins looking at early colonialism under the East India Company and the resulting revolt of 1857. It goes on to explore a variety of sites and social issues which were governed by the British colonial state and literary, political and militaristic responses to systems and priorities of government. The colonial state and the colonized were engaged, responsive and adaptive towards each other but locked in an unequal relationship underwritten by race and culture.
