Beschreibung

A provocative examination of how the British colonial experience in India was shaped by chronic unease, anxiety, and insecurity.

Über den Autor

Mark Condos obtained both his B.A. and M.A. at Queen's University in Canada. In 2013, he received his Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge, where he worked under the supervision of the late Professor Sir Christopher Bayly. In 2014, Dr Condos was awarded a Leverhulme Early Career Research Fellowship at Queen Mary University of London.
