Urbanizing Jorhat Beyond State was originally the author's M.Phil dissertation and explores the history of colonial Assam. In specific, the book deals with the process of urbanization in colonial Jorhat, a tea town in Assam. The book adopts an approach to understand urbanization by eliminating the colonial state from his narrative and evaluates the role of various non-statist actors such as the Assamese tea planters and American Baptist Missionaries and their role in urbanizing Jorhat. Along with this exploration, the author also deconstructs the understanding of the term “Urbanization”, which usually revolves around built fabrics that define a city space, and contextualizes the urbanizing process to the developments around the emergence of urban public spheres in the early twentieth century.
