9:30 am to 12:30 pm
The seminar covers the period from the First World War to the end of British rule in South Asia. Critical changes in economics, politics and society affected Britain, India, and the British Indian Empire. These interrelated issues radically affected the nature, pace and direction of nationalist and anti-colonial movements. It culminated in 1947 in a hurried British withdrawal and the creation of two new nations, and resulted in the death of a million people, and the greatest refugee crisis in modern history.
