The Anarchy: The Relentless Rise of the East India Company
William Dalrymple, 2020
Overview
In August 1765, the East India Company asserted control over the Mughal emperor, establishing a new administration in his wealthiest provinces. Governed by English merchants employing a private army for tax collection, the company transformed from an international trading entity into an aggressive colonial power operating under the guise of a multinational business. William Dalrymple recounts this remarkable history, presenting a timely cautionary narrative about the emergence of the first global corporate power.
