Sovereignty and Social Reform in India: British Colonialism and the Campaign against Sati, 1830-1860 - Routledge / Edinburgh South Asian Studies Series
Major, Andrea (University of Leeds, UK)
This book offers an important reinterpretation of major themes of sovereignty, authority & social reform in colonial South Asian history. Focusing on the British prohibition of sati in 1829, the author shows how the debates that preceded this legislation have been instrumental in setting the terms of post-colonial debates.
