In a penetrating account of the evolution of British intelligence gathering in India, C. A. Bayly shows how networks of Indian spies were recruited by the British to secure military, political and social information about their subjects. He also examines the social and intellectual origins of these 'native informants', and considers how the colonial authorities interpreted and often misinterpreted the information they supplied. It was such misunderstandings which ultimately contributed to the failure of the British to anticipate the rebellions of 1857. The author argues, however, that even before this, complex systems of debate and communication were challenging the political and intellectual dominance of the European rulers.
将信息秩序视作同“经济”“政制”一样的关键因素,决定一个社会应对变化的能力。Inspiring.
评分Truly encyclopaedic. Arguably the best work of history ever read.
评分时间不足,看得走马观花,作者从卡斯特的信息城市一书中借来“信息秩序”的概念,用来探讨东印度公司在北印度统治超过一个世纪的重要构成。书中对印度18世纪晚期到19世纪中叶历史的讨论,涉及印度本地间谍情报活动,(各行)知识分子、传教组织、公共舆论等主流话题,需要再读。
