  • Orients and Occidents: Colonial Discourse Theory and the Historiography of the British Empire

    David Washbrook, D A WashbrookCHAPTERThe Oxford history of the British…1999

    A striking feature of historical writings on the British Empire over the last decade has been the influence of critical theories of ‘colonial discourse’. Discourse criticism percolated steadily into the historiography of imperialism over a considerable period through interdisciplinary contacts with anthropology, which responded to it first. Colonial discourse critique certainly inspired a major paradigm-shift in the historiography of imperialism …

    Perhaps the most intransigent problem in the recent history of Indian society remains an adequate understanding of the processes of social change which took place under colonialism.
