About the Book
This book delves into the historical processes of colonial state-building, aiming to address the distinctive characteristics of the colonial state in comparison to other forms of governance. Through a careful narrativization of specific moments in the colonial period, the work examines how colonial power structures emerged, evolved, and impacted various regions.
The central question the book seeks to answer is: What makes the colonial state historically specific? By analyzing the unique policies, institutional structures, and governing methods employed by colonial powers, it explores the complexities of colonial rule and the fundamental differences between colonial states and other forms of governance, both in theory and practice.
