The volume examines the ambiguities of British rule that followed from the post-Mutiny settlement: the tensions between an authoritarian bureaucracy and the promise of a liberal vision of the future, and between imperial interests and the growing coordination of Indian aspirations for self-rule. The volume analyses these tensions with reference to contemporary historical debates, and traces them through changing international relations and world wars to Indian independence and partition in 1947.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lionel Knight\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0857285173\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780857285171\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthem Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.52d","brand":"Lionel Knight","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988310393087,"sku":"9780857285171","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_45c82cd5-11cd-4062-b9cb-7c6f230f334f.jpg?v=1683293818","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/britain-in-india-1858-1947-lionel-knight-9780857285171","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
