South Asian Resistances In Britain

This collection of essays considers a range of resistances enacted in Britain by South Asian people during the period 1858 to 1947. In 1858 the Britsih Crown formally took over governance of India from the East India Company, a position it retained until India and Pakistan gained their independence in August 1947. During this period of high imperialism, the relationship between Britain and India was often tense and antagonistic.
