Description for Subverting Empire: Deviance and Disorder in the British Colonial World
Hardback. Across their empire, the British spoke ceaselessly of deviants - of undesirables, ne'er do wells, petit-tyrants and rogues. With obvious literary appeal, these soon became stock figures. This is the first study to take deviance seriously, bringing together histories that reveal the complexity of a phenomenon that remains only dimly understood.

Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 225 x 145 x 21. Weight in Grams: 464.
