The present volume of Subaltern Studies presents the first comprehensive historical introduction to Subaltern Studies and the worldwide debates it has generated among scholars of history, politics and sociology. The volume provides a reliable point of departure for new readers of Subaltern Studies and a resource base for experienced readers who want to revive critical debates. It includes twelve essays on Subaltern Studies—from early reviews to recent interpretive essays; a complete list of Subaltern authors; a bibliographic guide to literature in and around Subaltern Studies; and an extensive introduction that narrates the history of Subaltern Studies as a specific project within the wider field of historical studies ‘from below.’

David Ludden (Ed.), Professor of History, University of Pennsylvania. He teaches South Asian history and comparative world history.
