Descriere

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, Singh demonstrates the enduring relevance of symbolism and ritual, and the continuing importance of local power networks to imperial projects.
