Essays On Colonialism Reprinted edition by Bipin Chandra | free pdf ebook download | Buy paperback book | epub | audiobook
This book is a collection of eight essays that bring together Bipan
Chandra's finest writings on colonialism and nationalism in India,
spanning two decades. The author in these essays puts forth the core
elements of colonialism, the complex integration of the colony with the
world capitalist system in a subordinate position, a distinct historical
stage which modernized colonial societies without initiating a process
of independent economic development, a system which while it continued
to subordinate the colonial economy, displayed three distinct phases
each characterized by a unique pattern of domination and surplus
extraction, a structure where the colonial state was an instrument for
subordinating all the social and economic classes of the colony, while
it served the interests of the metropolitan bourgeoisie.
