Through a regional focus on Bihar between the 1760s and 1880s,
'Communication and Colonialism in Eastern India' reveals the
shifting and contradictory nature of the colonial state's policies
and discourses on communication. The volume explores the changing
relationship between trade, transport and mobility in India, as
evident in the trading and mercantile networks operating at various
scales of the economy. Of crucial importance to this study are the
ways in which knowledge about roads and routes was collected
through practices of travel, tours, surveys, and map-making, all of
which benefited the state in its attempts to structure a regime
that would regulate 'undesirable' forms of mobility.
