Labors of Division: Global Capitalism and the Emergence of the Peasant in Colonial Panjab - South Asia in Motion
Navyug Gill
Navyug Gill uncovers how and why British officials and ascendant Panjabis disrupted existing forms of identity and occupation to generate a new agrarian order in the countryside. The notion of the hereditary caste peasant engaged in timeless cultivation thus emerged, paradoxically, as a result of a dramatic series of conceptual, juridical, and monetary divisions.
