Book Summary
In this remarkable account of imperial citizenship, Sukanya Banerjee
investigates the ways that Indians formulated notions of citizenship in the
British Empire from the late nineteenth century through the early twentieth.
Tracing the affective, thematic, and imaginative tropes that underwrote Indian
claims to formal equality prior to decolonization, she emphasizes the extralegal
life of citizenship: the modes of self-representation it generates even before
it is codified and the political claims it triggers because it is deferred.
Banerjee theorizes modes of citizenship decoupled from the rights-conferring
nation-state; in so doing, she provides a new frame for understanding the
colonial subject, who is usually excluded from critical discussions of
citizenship.Interpreting autobiography,
