Colonialism and Its Forms of Knowledge
Law and the Colonial State in India
In the second half of the eighteenth century, the East India Company had to create a state through which it could administer the rapidly expanding territories acquired by conquest or accession. The invention of such a state was without precedent in British constitutional history. The British colonies in North America and the Caribbean had from their inception forms of governance that were largely an extension of the basic political and legal inst…
Un antropólogo entre los historiadores. Un informe de campo
En los últimos 25 años, muchos han sido los esfuerzos para reunir a historiadores y antropólogos, para así combinar los planteamientos y métodos de ambas disciplinas en una colaboración productiva para la enseñanza y la investigación. Este esfuerzo ha alcanzado cierto éxito en algunas ocasiones, pero luego de diez años como estudiante y practicante de ambas disciplinas, aún mantengo la impresión que los antropólogos y los historiadores siguen sie…

Toward a Rapprochement
Toward a Rapprochement History and anthropology are forms of knowledge, the creation, formalization, and practice of which are deeply embedded in the historical experience of Western Europe from the fifteenth century to the present. Until the eighteenth century anthropology was a part of history. Historians sought to understand otherness in time by postulating a relationship between the past and the present, the past being lineally and causally r…
History and Anthropology
This paper is an exploration of two models, 'Anthropologyland' and 'Historyland,' which exist in the practices and minds of anthropologists and historians. It is about how particular forms of knowledge are created, written and spoken about. It is about what historians and anthropologists do and say they do

The Pasts of an Indian Village
Events of the last two hundred years have led many scholars to divide the societies of the world into contrasting pairs, such as developed-under-developed, advanced-backward, traditional-modern. Central to these concepts are not only ideas about the level of technological development, but the very character of the societies and cultures which are compared and contrasted as well. Professor Edward Shils has recently remarked that the traditional so…
From Indian Status to British Contract
One of the first problems confronting a colonial power after establishing de facto or de jure sovereignty over a new territory is to set up procedures for settling disputes arising within the dominated society, and to establish a whole range of rights in relation to property and obligations of individuals and groups to one another and to the state
The Initial British Impact on India
The British administrative frontier in India had widely differing effects on the political and social structures of the regions into which it moved from the middle of the eighteenth century until the middle of the nineteenth century. It is impossible to generalize on the impact of the administration, because the regions into which it moved differed in their political and social structures, and because British administration and ideas about admini…

The diffusion of British institutions, ideas, and values and the spread of the English language and of British peoples are among the major events in modern history. The study of the effects of this diffusion in the New World, Africa, and Asia in shaping political institutions in these regions has attracted many scholars, but the systematic and analytic study of the British themselves and of the societies and cultures they built overseas in their …
Changing Traditions of a Low Caste
HE Camars are a widespread and numerically important part of the population of North India. Their traditional occupation is skinning, tanning, and working in leather; however, only a small number of this extensive caste derives its income from the traditional occupation, and the great majority make their living as agricultural laborers and, increasingly in the twentieth century, as urban laborers.1 Socially the Camars are untouchable. In North In…
