Peasants and Imperial Rule: Agriculture and Agrarian Society in the Bombay Presidency 1850–1935 - Cambridge South Asian Studies
Neil Charlesworth
This book examines the impact of British rule on the Indian peasantry, and the changes it brought. It finds that significant long-term economic and social change did occur but that the highly 'differential' pattern to commercialisation prevented any structural transformation in the peasant economy and society.
