About the Book:
This book examines the role of medicine as both an instrument of diplomacy in British frontier policy and as a means of integration in the post-Independence era in Arunachal Pradesh. By tracing the historical context of medical practices in this region, the author explores how medicine was strategically used by the British to establish influence and control, and how it evolved into a tool for integration and development in the state of Arunachal Pradesh after India’s independence.
Through a detailed analysis, the book sheds light on the intersection of healthcare, colonial policies, and post-colonial state-building efforts, offering a unique perspective on the role of medical infrastructure and services in shaping the socio-political landscape of this frontier region. This work provides valuable insights into how medicine, beyond its healing purposes, was utilized in the larger political and diplomatic processes that impacted Arunachal Pradesh.
