Review quote:
the radically new programme of historical research initiated by a group of historians ... has firmly established itself as perhaps the most interesting approach in the field of South Asian Studies (Indian Book Chronicle)
breaks new ground in history The Indian Economic and Social History ReviewSubaltern Studies, a series of fragmentary explorations of popular mentality and politics in particular places and at particular times ... has served its purpose - a very useful purpose - and it is to be hoped that it will encourage broader and more long-ranging works giving a connected history of the lower classes. (The Statesman)
The Subaltern Studies Series, which has already run into 7 volumes, is now acknowledged as the `most interesting approach in the field of South Asian Studies'.
