British Imperialism in India

By: Cole, Robert P.

Delve into the intricate interplay of politics, conservatism, and imperialism with this compelling exploration of British rule in India from 1857 to 1914. From the Indian Revolt to the emergence of Indian nationalism, this book meticulously unravels the influence of political conservatism on the ideological underpinnings of British imperialism.

Through a nuanced biographical analysis, the narrative explores how key figures such as Lord Ellenborough, Benjamin Disraeli, Lord Mayo, Lord Lytton, the Kathiawar States, Roper Lethbridge, and M.M. Bhownaggree shaped the discourse on empire. Highlighting the clash between conservative and liberal imperialist ideals, the study reveals how conservatives leveraged local inclinations and pre-modern ideas to challenge the universal ambitions of their liberal counterparts.
