Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book studies the impact of foreign and domestic legislation enacted by the British in India, which severely constrained the freedoms of its people. The book includes excerpts from important statutes and regulations showing the wide-ranging extent of these laws, which affected everything from the press to public gatherings. The author places these restrictions in the context of the evolving constitutional relationship between India and Britain during this era. He shows how, despite the stated aims of justice and equality for all, the laws were often used to suppress dissent and maintain colonial power.
