Beverley argues that Hyderabad's position as a subordinate yet sovereign 'minor state' was not just a legal formality, but that in exercising the right to internal self-government and acting as a conduit for the regeneration of transnational Muslim intellectual and political networks, Hyderabad was indicative of the fragmentation of sovereignty between multiple political entities amidst empires. By exploring connections with the Muslim world beyond South Asia, law and policy administration along frontiers with the colonial state and urban planning in expanding Hyderabad City, Beverley presents Hyderabad as a locus for experimentation in global and regional forms of political modernity. This book recasts the political geography of late imperialism and historicises Muslim political modernity in South Asia and beyond"-- 0aSelf-determination, NationalzIndiazHyderabad (State)xHistory. 0aMuslimsxPolitical activityzIndiazHyderabad (State)xHistory. 0aSocial networkszIndiazHyderabad (State)xHistory. 0aTransnationalismxPolitical aspectszIndiazHyderabad (State)xHistory. 0aCity planningxPolitical aspectszIndiazHyderabadxHistory.42uhttp://assets.cambridge.org/97811070/91191/cover/9781107091191.jpg42uhttp://www.h-net.org/reviews/showrev.php?id=45531  cBK 0aHyderabad (India : State)xPolitics and government. 0aHyderabad (India : State)xRelationszIndia. 0aIndiaxRelationszHyderabad (India : State) 0aIndiaxHistoryyBritish occupation, 1765-1947. 0aHyderabad (India : State)xForeign relations.  a7bcbccorignewd1eecipf20gy-gencatlg  001040708ENGaLIBbLIBd2017-07-18l1oV225 Q6p441704r2018-03-20s2018-02-20v995.00w2017-07-18yBK
