About the book

"The Domination of Strangers offers the first account of British rule in India which connects the history of political thought to the anxious, everyday world of colonial governance. It offers a bottom-up account of the process of colonial state formation, showing how the colonial encounter generated new concepts of state and civil society with no precedent in Europe or South Asia. Fundamental to those concepts, it argues, was a new, characteristically modern attitude to time."--BOOK JACKET.
