520 _aThe capitalist sector in India emer ged not as a result of the sharpen ing of contradictions within Indian society but as a result of the impact of the developed capitalism of a foreign country, backed by state power, on a dependent, pre-capita- list society and could grow only by This Marxist study of the imperial impact on Indian society and of 1 the genesis and development of the Indian big bourgeoisie contends that the interests of the latter coale sced with those of imperialist capital. The primary aspect of their rela tionship has been one of collusion to fleece the people any contradic tion between them was and is secondary. This book maintains that the bourgeois revolution in India was forestalled by the metro politan bourgeoisie with the help of its domestic allies-the Indian big bourgeoisie and feudal elements. This book traces the growth of the Indian big bourgeoisie to 1947 and anticipates the subsequent course of its development. It demolishes many of the current myths about the origin, growth and character of this section of the bourgeoisie.
