[Foster, Tom]

A wonderful 400-level HST offering is in danger of being canceled, if
enrollments don't reach 6 students by early next week. We need only 3
more students in the class. Help us keep this important offering from
being canceled! Please consider taking the course and tell your friends
who might be interested! Thanks!

 

HST 434-201: Colloquium in Asian History (State and Society in South
Asia) Mondays, 6-9.15pm. Prof Rajit Mazumder

The course is intended to provide advanced historical training in modern
South Asian history. Students will also acquire a familiarity with
themes, problems and historiography in regard to the state and public
life in India under the rule of the East India Company and the British
Crown (roughly 1757 to 1947). Subjects covered include the
establishment, ideologies, objectives and development of colonial
administration, plus the organized responses to the state and colonial
rule in Indian religious, social, economic and political life. However,
the course will not neglect public and political developments that owed
little to colonial institutions. A balance between political, social and
economic history encourages familiarity with different perspectives and
approaches. The focus on the role of the state and politics gives
cohesion to the course.
