Using the relationship between the Bhadauria Rajputs and the Mughal, Maratha and British Empires as a prism to evaluate the constitution of sovereignty and the process of state formation, it demonstrates the enduring relevance of symbolism and ritual, the persistence of pre-colonial political forms and ideologies and the continuing importance of local power networks in moulding imperial projects. Employing theories of state formation borrowed from anthropology, Singh emphasizes the need to conceptually separate political authority from symbolic sovereignty and examine the local context of imperial politics. This work provides a compelling re-orientation of the way we understand the nature of imperial states, the experience of sovereignty and the processes of political change in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. 611 27 $a British Occupation of India (1765-1947) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01352145 651 0 $a India $x History $y 1526-1765. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85064913 650 0 $a Local government $z India $x History. 651 0 $a India $x History $y British occupation, 1765-1947. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85064915 651 0 $a India $x Politics and government $y 997-1765. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85064938 651 0 $a India $x Politics and government $y 1765-1947. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85064939 650 7 $a Local government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01001300 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 648 7 $a 997-1947 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214020948.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FD26F324083E11EABF3FA51A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
