Overview: In this course you’ll trace the economic motives that brought the British and other Westerners to India, like how the emergence of the English as a stereotypically tea-drinking society was directly related to the Indian colonial economy. You will also take stock of the incredibly lavish lifestyles of India’s maharajas and how the British leveraged alliances with them. And you’ll grasp the fundamental moral contradiction of the Raj, the conflict between Britain’s economic interests and the human needs of the empire’s Indian subjects, and more. In A History of British India, you’ll relive a crucial era in international relations, one with deep and lasting implications for our contemporary world.
