In her debut book, historian Jessica Namakkal proposes a counter-metanarrative that challenges the notion of “decolonization as a completed event” (p. 5), instead offering a more nuanced understanding of its complexities and ongoing impact. The book covers the history of the twentieth century in the French comptoirs of India, although the case of Pondicherry remains the central focus throughout. Namakkal’s work is notable for its extensive use of sources from a variety of archives dispersed
