Focusing on the social history of colonial Bombay during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, this book presents a systematic analysis of historical change in a modernizing colonial city. Utilizing a variety of untapped archival sources, it connects previously separate strands of research and emphasizes the global dimensions of colonial experiences. The volume also explores how the globalizing forces of European imperialism were adapted and reshaped within the colonial context, contributing to a deeper understanding of these significant historical processes.
