The Bengal Delta: Ecology, State and Social Change, 1840–1943 de I. Iqbal

The Bengal Delta: Ecology, State and Social Change, 1840–1943: Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies

Autor I. Iqbal
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 oct 2010
With a focus on colonial Bengal, this book demonstrates how the dynamics of agrarian prosperity or decline, communal conflicts, poverty and famine can only be properly understood from an ecological perspective as well as discussions of state's coercion and popular resistance, market forces and dependency, or contested cultures and consciousness.
