These eleven months were packed as much with the events surrounding the formal exit of the empire as its informal continuance; as much with the anticipation of Partition as its alternatives. Though it stands at a juncture of India as a colony and a dominion, it has been overlooked by colonial and postcolonial historiography of that interval, given its sole identification with Partition/Independence. India in the Interregnum moves beneath and beyond this understanding in order to, first, restore identity to the interim government - and its provincial counterparts - and investigate their work, and, second, recover the legacy of the interim government in the formation of contemporary India"--Back cover. 530 $a Also issued online. 650 0 $a Interim governments $z India. 651 0 $a India $x Politics and government $y 1919-1947. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117024731.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190702015158.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=07FFAA8C9C8F11E981649E3E97128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
