Description

This scholarly work examines the social history of colonial Bombay during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, a transformative era that shaped its development as a modern metropolis. Drawing on diverse archival sources, the book provides a systematic analytical account of historical change in one of the Indian Ocean region's major colonial cities. It explores how colonised populations negotiated, appropriated and resisted the turbulent changes brought by European modernity, offering fresh perspectives on the relationship between colonial governance and public culture in this premier urban centre. The Historical Urban Studies Series volume synthesises previously fragmented research strands into a cohesive narrative, revealing the complex social dynamics that defined Bombay's emergence as a significant global city during this critical period of transformation.
