The Insecurity State: Punjab and the Making of Colonial Power in British India
Condos, Mark (Queen Mary University of London)
Condos explores the 'dark underside' of the ideologies that sustained British rule in India. He argues that India's colonial overlords were obsessively fearful, and plagued by an unreasoning belief in their own vulnerability as rulers. These enduring anxieties precipitated, and justified, an all too frequent recourse to violence.
