Cambridge University Press. Softcover. New. This book examines the effect of Classical political economy — the economic and monetary writings of Adam Smith, Ricardo, Malthus, the Mills and others — on the policy-making of the British government in India in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Professor Ambirajan shows how the economic doctrines of laissez-faire individualism and the freedom of market forces were instilled into the British administrative class. The East India Company`s college at Haileybury was the most obvious agent but it is clear that a whole nexus of taught and unconscious attitudes predisposed the administrators to accept the ideas and ideologies of the economists. When they came to apply them in India, however there was often a gap between the administrators’ policy conclusions. Theoretical beliefs, administrative exigencies and political pressures were all involved in policy-making. By a close examination of what the economists said and the officials actually did in the fields of usury regulation, rural indebtedness, tenancy legislation, famine conditions, land revenue, taxation and the construction of public works, the author concludes that nineteenth-century administrators did have a deep commitment to the doctrines of economists and did try to carry them out. Broadly, successive generations remained neutral where British and Indian industry competed, encourages individual initiative in the agrarian sector (hence the argument that no help should be given by government in time of famine) and active state intervention in public works such as railways or canals.
