Groundswell in Bengal in the 1940s
Chiefly on the 1946-1947 peasant movement in Bengal for the larger share of produce.
The Fakir and Sannyasi Uprisings
The history of insurgency by fakirs and sannyasis against the incursion of the East India Company in Bengal, in the wake of the famine in 1769.
The Sundarbans
The book is about the colonization of the Sunderbans that began with the coming of the British. For two centuries, land-hungry peasants strove to transform the tidal forest vegetation into an agro- ecosystem dominated by paddy fields and fish culture. The construction of a permanent railroad led to the spreading of the co- operative movement, the formation of peasant organizations, and finally culminated in open rebellion by the peasants (tebhaga).
Transformations on the Bengal Frontier
An analysis of the socio-economic changes brought about by colonial rule in a frontier area of Bengal, Jalpaiguri. Challenging long established debates focused around the powers of dominant groups over a settled peasantry, this book broadens our perspective on the 18th century, promoting a deeper understanding of the change-over from the pre-colonial to the colonial era.
