内容説明・目次
内容説明
First published in 1983, this book explores the social and economic history of north Indian towns and merchant communities from the decline of Mughal dominion to the consolidation of Britain's empire in India following the 1857 "mutiny". The first section of the book looks at the reponse of the inhabitants of the Ganges Valley to the "time of troubles" in the 18th century. The second section shows how the incoming British were themselves constrained to build their new empire on this resilient newtwork of towns, rural bazaars and merchant communities; and how in turn colonial trade and administration were moulded by indigenous forms of commerce and politics. The third section focuses on the social history of the towns under early colonial rule and includes an analysis of the culture and business methods of the Indian merchant family. It is based in part on the private records and histories of the business people themselves. This edition has been specially produced for Indian readers. It carries a new and substantial epilogue, not available in earlier printings, which examines the historiography on colonial India during the 1990s.
