This book aims to give a complete description of the impact of the Great Depression on the Madras Presidency, by using the techniques of both a historian and an economist. Manikumar’s multidisciplinary approach provides a fresh perspective on the political, economic and social conditions of the Presidency in the 1930s. The major areas covered are: Madras’s economy before the Depression, particularly the state of the export-dependent agricultural sector; the rise of indebtedness among the peasants; the varied effects on industrial sectors; the economic policies of the colonial government, which worsened the degree of debt; and the social and political effects of the Depression, including the Indian National Congress’s increased political influence.

K.A. Manikumar is Professor of History at Manonmaniam Sundaranar University, Tirunelveli. His present research interests are in human rights issues and the Dalit Movement.
