Synopsis

A clear, critical look at India’s struggle for independence and the social forces behind it. This edition examines how nationalism and class struggle intersect, revealing how economic change, urbanization, and imperial rule shaped India’s political path in the early 20th century.

The book analyzes the rise of a modern bourgeoisie in India, the growth of the urban proletariat, and how mass action challenged both colonial power and elite leadership. It connects wage trends, industrial profits, and rural distress to the broader push for political independence, offering a grounded view of how social forces drove historical events.


  • How economic shifts affected politics and national movements

  • The relationship between workers, peasants, and nationalist leadership

  • The role of industry, wages, and living conditions in social change

  • Critical perspectives on Gandhi’s stance during pivotal protests



Ideal for readers seeking a rigorous, issue-focused perspective on India’s transition and the forces shaping its history.
