Description

This Routledge publication examines the 1935 Government of India Act, a watershed moment in British colonial administration. The book investigates why British administrators and politicians believed their proposed Indian federation strategy would maintain control over India and counter the nationalist challenge posed by Gandhi, Nehru and the independence movement. Through detailed analysis, it explores the political calculations and imperial logic that underpinned British efforts to deflect and disrupt Indian nationalist activities during this critical period of the Raj's decline.

Key Features

The book analyses the 1935 Government of India Act as a turning point in British-Indian relations and colonial history.

Explores British political strategy to preserve control through federation proposals whilst addressing nationalist pressures.

Examines the motivations of British administrators and politicians who shaped imperial policy during the late Raj period.

Investigates how British efforts attempted to counter the influence of Gandhi, Nehru and the broader independence movement.

Published by Routledge, a respected academic publisher specialising in historical and political scholarship.
