This volume examines whether there were South Asian concepts of race, or, as has often been argued, race became an issue in the subcontinent only under Western influence after the eighteenth century.
Reviews / Votes
with some strong and diverse discussions from well established scholars, this volume will serve as a useful critical intervention in modern South Asian history, cultural studies, anthropology, and postcolonial theory. * Shekhar Krishnan, SOAS, Contemporary South Asia, issue 8.1 *More details
