It has been argued that the process of vernacularisation opened up new possibilities of an alien science. The cultural negotiation of colonial psych iatry was neither smooth nor seamless enough to establish a new code of norm/abnorm guided by the Enlightenment. Based on the analyses of Bengali texts, it is argued that by transforming itself culturally, psychiatry could challenge a universalistic science by constructing an indigenous theory.","PeriodicalId":45806,"journal":{"name":"Indian Economic and Social History Review","volume":"41 1","pages":"103 - 141"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2004-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/001946460404100201","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64786502","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In part, this is because debates about global historical processes focus on outcomes rather than on underlying processes and the institutional settings in which they are played out. Of singular significance here is the creation of a two-tiered international economic system comprising a hccute sphere whose institutions and agents mobilise and allocate capital efficiently, and a base sphere where both are absent and which is transformed and harnessed by the capital and enterprise of European agencies.

In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries caste played little role in colonial discourse, but it remained important in social life and elite politics.

For historians, the publication of these two ambitious and useful books will likely serve as a long-standing landmark. There is a remarkable convergence in the periodisation and coverage of the two accounts. Both Bayly and Dirks begin with the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and see considerable diversity in patterns of social organisation across the subcontinent. They agree that early colonial accounts of caste were uncertain and confused, and did not dominate early British perceptions of ‘lndia’. Both authors date the more intense British objectification of Indian identities in general, and caste in particular, to the 1860s, and give similar accounts of the colonial policies and discourses that reified caste over the following half century. When they arrive at the twentieth century, both writers examine the attitudes of anti-colonial nationalists and other politicians before turning to the political history of caste in the postcolonial Indian state. On the whole the two books tell very much the same story. Despite this similarity, both Bayly and Dirks are quite determined to portray their interpretations as radically different from each other.
