Hardback. Zustand: New. The Limited Raj: Agrarian Relations in Colonial India, Saran District, 1793-1920 offers a detailed exploration of the interplay between colonial governance and local power structures in rural Bihar. Focusing on Saran District, the book examines the British administration's reliance on informal alliances with zamindars, taluqdars, and village notables to maintain control over vast rural populations. This collaborative system of governance, termed the "Limited Raj," highlights the limited penetration of colonial institutions into the countryside, leaving much of the rural population under the influence of entrenched local elites. The author explores how these dual systems of control-colonial authority and zamindari networks-shaped agrarian relations, with peasants caught between the demands of landholders and the policies of an alien state. Through meticulous archival research, the book investigates the mechanisms of power that sustained both British rule and local dominance, from economic extraction to social and normative control. It sheds light on how colonial policies reinforced existing inequalities, shaping the rural economy and society in profound ways. By situating Saran's experience within broader debates about colonialism's impact, including deindustrialization and the integration of India's economy into global capitalism, the book bridges local history with macroeconomic theories. The Limited Raj is a compelling analysis of colonial governance, providing fresh insights into the lasting legacies of empire in South Asia.
