The State in India 1000-1700 (Oxford in India Readings: Themes in Indian History)
By Unknown Author.
Description
Since the 1940s, re-evaluations of the nature of the State have been a major preoccupation among historians worldwide. There has been a debate on the extent to which the State is independent of the interests of the ruling class. Pre-colonial India provides a unique testing ground for such debates, for it provides examples of State forms which vary enormously. This volume outlines and expands all the major discourses on India's various State forms. - from Amzon
