Abstract

This study concentrates on the origins, growth and function of the Residency system in India between 1760 and 1857, in particular the composition of three groups: British residents, Indian rulers and the Indian staff of the residencies. By studying the entire body of residents and political agents - their backgrounds, careers, strategies and tactics - the author attempts to provide a portrait of the men who carried out indirect rule over the major portion of India.
