Beschreibung:
Bengal's traditional industries, once celebrated worldwide, largely decayed under the backwash effects of the British Industrial Revolution in the first half of the nineteenth century. Although colonial ambivalence is often cited as an explanation, this study also shows that a series of new industries emerged during this period.
1 Introduction. 2 Economic slowdown in the early modern age: alternative explanations under the 'great divergence' hypothesis. 3 Coal mining: dissemination of mineralogical knowledge and railway networking. 4 Iron smelting and its downstreams: conflicts in the core-periphery relationship. 5 Jute processing: triumph against Dundee. 6 Paper making: the changing attitude of colonial governance. 7 Tea plantations: British capital, tribal labour and wastelands in the Himalayas. 8 Major industries in 1858-1914: a summary. 9 Deindustrialisation in the nineteenth century: a myth or a reality?
