Uncover the transcultural colonial history of the Chittagong Hill Tracts, a vital South Asian borderland region. This insightful book examines how British administrators from the late 18th to mid-20th centuries utilized European knowledge systems like botany and anthropology to categorize indigenous communities and their landscapes. It reveals how global forces shaped perceptions through religion, linguistics, and race. Essential for students and researchers of Indian colonial history, ethnography, and South Asian regional studies, this work offers a unique perspective on a little-studied historical nexus.
