Sutoris pioneers a novel methodology for the study of development thought and its cinematic representations, analyzing films made by the Films Division of India, 1948-75. By comparing these documentaries to late-colonial films on "progress," his book highlights continuities with and departures from colonial notions of development in modern India. It is the first scholarly volume to be published on the history of Indian documentary film. Of the approximately 250 documentaries analyzed by Peter Sutoris, many of which have never been discussed in the existing literature, most are concerned with economic planning and industrialization, large dams, family planning, schemes aimed at the integration of tribal peoples (Adivasis) into society, and civic education. Films Division has made all films analyzed in this volume available for free online streaming through the website of the Films Division." $c --back cover. 650 0 $a Documentary films $z India $x History $y 20th century. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211032542.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20170503023506.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B7CD6104A18B11E6AED112AEDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
