Subverting Empire: Deviance and Disorder in the British Colonial World: Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies

Editat de Will Jackson, Emily Manktelow
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 iul 2015

This is the first study to take deviance seriously, bringing together histories that reveal the complexity of a phenomenon that remains only dimly understood.
