Summary: This book is an exploration into the historical process through which justice as equity, rather than freedom, not only provided an ideological framework for the British Empire in India, but also became the ground for anti-colonial representational politics under the Indian National Congress. Ultimately justice as equity became incorporated as the sovereign category in the Constitution of independent India.
