Event, Metaphor, Memory: Chauri Chaura, 1922-1992

by ShahidAmin (Author)

Synopsis

Taking Gandhi's statements about civil disobedience to heart, in February 1922 residents from the villages around the north Indian market town of Chauri Chaura attacked the local police station. This title explores the ways it has been remembered, interpreted, and used as a metaphor for the Indian struggle for independence.
