The Limits of British Colonial Control in South Asia: Spaces of Disorder in the Indian Ocean Region

By Harald Fischer Tiné, Harald Fischer-Tiné, Ashwini Tambe

Book Overview

This book assesses British colonialism in South Asia in a transnational light, and with a focus on 'subaltern' groups and actors. Challenging the assumed stability of colonial rule, it analyses the ways in which the racial, class and moral order instituted by British colonial states was resisted and subverted.
