Social Science : History : Anti-Colonial Movements and the Birth of Nationalism : Summary, Glossary

SUMMARY

 

• The latter half of nineteenth century British India was replete with revolts of peasants and tribals against colonial political and economic domination.

 

• The great rebellion of 1857 was the culmination of various anti-British tendencies led by the depossessed feudal chieftains with an agenda to restore the Pre-colonial order.

 

• Even though the leaders of the Revolt lacked vision and were guided by local ambitions, it was a progressive act in terms of their effort to resist and challenge a despotic alien government.

 

• The Indian National Movement, building public opinion against the exploitative and oppressive British rule, inspired the younger generation to become part of the future militant anti-colonial struggles.

 

• The Swadeshi Movement helped to enhance the participation of masses in nationalist politics.
