Summary, etc. In this pioneering study of social change Dr.<br/>Bhadra explains and illustrates the processes<br/>of dependent capitalist development in<br/>colonial India. He realizes his objective by<br/>focussing on the historical formations of the<br/>capitalist mode of production, the capitalist<br/>class structure and the capitalist state in<br/>colonial India as a dialectical outcome of the<br/>historical interplay between the British and<br/>the Indian social formations or, what amounts<br/>to the same thing, between metropolitan and<br/>indigenous forces of societal determination.<br/>The examination of the origins and nature of<br/>the alterations in the economic, class and<br/>political structures, which India experienced<br/>in its movement from Mughal feudalism to<br/>colonial capitalism, has been conducted in<br/>order to establish the historical specificity of<br/>colonial social change in terms of dependent<br/>capitalist development along the<br/>stated<br/>dimensions. Furthermore, despite his empha-<br/>sis on the external forces (i.e. contradictory<br/>roles of metropolitan capitalism and its<br/>corollary, colonialism) in generating depen-<br/>dent capitalist development, Dr. Bhadra makes<br/>it abundantly clear that those external forces,<br/>constraints as well as accelerators, were<br/>certainly not the exclusive causal agents of<br/>social change. They acted on and interacted<br/>with both the constraining and the accelera-<br/>ting internal forces in the indigenous social<br/>formation, which eventually led to the histori-<br/>cal formations of the capitalist mode of<br/>production, the capitalist class structure and<br/>the capitalist state. Unlike most others<br/>concerned with Indian social change, Dr.<br/>Bhadra brings home these concrete aspects<br/>of India's dependent capitalist development<br/>from<br/>the rigorous methodological and<br/>theoretical orientations of Marxist Sociology.<br/>What follows as a result is an exhaustive<br/>sociological analysis, at one and the same<br/>time, of the economic roots and their<br/>concomitant sociopolitical ramifications of<br/>Indian capitalist underdevelopment.
