Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. The Second World War remains a defining chapter in modern world history. Colonial Indiaas involvement in the war has often been studied against the backdrop of the ongoing freedom struggle, the varying attitudes of the Indian National Congress and the Muslim League, and the formation of the Azad… Hind Fauj under Subhas Chandra Bose. Moving beyond the claims of how Indian resources and soldiers aided the Allies in winning the war, this volume explores thecomplex interrelationship between the Indian armed forces, the Indian society, and the war.Drawing on archival data, this book focuses on understanding the impact of large-scale mobilizationof manpower and resources on an underdeveloped agrarian society; the communities which joined the Indian armed forces; why the Indian soldiers remained loyal to the Raj; and how they defeated the Japanese in Burma and the Italians and the Germans in Africa and Italy.Rather than merely providing a chronological account of military operations, Roy fuses ideas and institutions of violence with the prevalent social and cultural contexts. He further asserts that nationalismwas not a strong sentiment among the Indian soldiers involved in the war, who were quite content with the British military service. The present monograph is a study of the Indian armed forces during the Second World War. This monograph is a corrective to the cultural studies approach of totally neglecting blood and gore. Rather than merely providing a chronological account of military operations, combat dynamics is integrated with the social and cultural contexts. Tools, ideas and institutions of violence are fused with the social fabric and the cultural context. An attempt is made to evaluatethe combat effectiveness of the Indian armed forces. The focus is on leadership at the level of brigades, battalions and platoons and the lethal technology they used in the different terrains of Malay and Burma. Further, soldiers views of combat, military life and the home front are alsoincluded. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
