Bengal Industries and the British Industrial Revolution (1757-1857)

More about the book

Focusing on the historical development of Bengal's industries, the book explores their status during the British industrial revolution, questioning whether they declined or adapted to technological changes. It delves into the reasons behind their survival or downfall and addresses the contentious issue of deindustrialization in Bengal. By examining two competing theories—market failures and neo-Marxian imperialistic interventions—the work aims to clarify the complex dynamics of industrial change in the region, shedding light on a previously underexplored area of industrial historiography.
