| Publisher Description: This book provides a comprehensive framework for the study of Indian nationalism. Departing from uni-dimensional explanations of Indian nationalism--which see it as a product of of caste, interest or power groups, personalities or elites--it presents an integrated analysis of the situation in which national consciousness emerged in India. Chandra discusses topics like the background and legacy of 1857, social setting and reform movements, economic background and political aspects of the rise of nationalism, and also examines the formation of the Indian National Congress. With a new introduction, this book provides complete and updated research on the subject and will prove an essential resource for exploring the topic of Indian nationalism. |
