"This book explores the historical and cultural processes by which people under colonial and postcolonial rule come to regard themselves as part of a "community, " sharing a particular local and panregional ethnic community identity. The focus of this ethnohistorical case study of community formation is a wealthy and controversial migrant business community in Calcutta, the Marwaris."--Preface
