Summary, etc. |
This book explores the impact of railways on colonial Indian society from the<br/>commencement of railway operations in the mid-nineteenth to the early decades<br/>of the twentieth century.<br/>The book represents a historiographical departure. Using new archival evidence<br/>as well as travelogues written by Indian railway travellers in Bengali and Hindi,<br/>this book suggests that the impact of railways on colonial Indian society were<br/>more heterogeneous and complex than anticipated either by India’s colonial<br/>railway builders or currently assumed by post-colonial scholars.<br/>At a related level, the book argues that this complex outcome of the impact of<br/>railways on colonial Indian society was a product of the interaction between the<br/>colonial context of technology transfer and the Indian railway passengers who<br/>mediated this process at an everyday level. In other words, this book claims<br/>that the colonised ‘natives’ were not bystanders in this process of imposition of<br/>an imperial technology from above. On the contrary, Indians, both as railway<br/>passengers and otherwise influenced the nature and the direction of the impact of<br/>an oft-celebrated ‘tool of Empire’.<br/>The historiographical departures suggested in the book are based on examining<br/>railway spaces as social spaces – a methodological index influenced by Henri<br/>Lefebvre’s idea of social spaces as means of control, domination and power. |
