Colonial Deccan like the rest of British India had all the social economic and material ingredients for the proliferation of epidemic diseases. Its population lived in the most unsanitary conditions consumed contaminated water and was crowded for space living in wretched houses extremely poverty stricken sunk in debt and suffered from serious food shortage and malnutrition. Diseases claimed lives on a regular basis even in the officially designated non famine and non drought years. Failure to look at the material condition of the masses was in fact a reflection of not only the oppressive nature of British imperialism in India but also the insensitivity of European colonizers. The existence of mass poverty and its denial by the colonial state made the situation worse. This book argues that the reason for dysentery diarrhoea and bowel complaints was really malnutrition undernourishment and the general poverty of the masses. Even though all the diseases were intimately associated with colonial modernization yet the British imperial medical establishment continued to blindly adhere to the non contagion miasmatic ideology. When the imperial state created hundreds of miles of roads and railways diseases like cholera malaria smallpox plague influenza etc. travelled and proliferated everywhere. The absence of proper infrastructural response from the imperial establishment made these epidemics even more deadly. This long awaited study shows how the infrastructural changes brought about by British colonialism created ecological conditions for the diseases to become epidemic. 310 pp. …

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The special status of Berar as a prime cotton producing region within the British colonial empire in the nineteenth century in itself reveals its importance to the contemporary world economy. The dramatic takeover of the region and its linkup to the world market with the consequent socio-economic change the region underwent is a story which has waited long to be told. This work retrieves Berar from the colonial documents of the nineteenth century and critically places it in the historiography of South Asia.The book examines the forceful impact of the industrial revolution on the material condition of the masses and how it changed social relations in the Berar society as a whole. It also studies the activities of the colonial state in Berar in the context of a world economy driven by the cotton crisis before and after the American Civil War. The great social and economic transformation which this region underwent is systematically analysed in relation to the broader framework of colonialism and imperialism. The study also addresses the critical issue of the deep and underlying connection between cotton, British imperialism and famine in Berar.This book should be of great interest to students of agrarian, environmental, economic and social history, political economy, colonialism, imperialism and popular culture. 344 pp. Englisch.…
