Telegraphic Imperialism Crisis and Panic in the Indian Empire 1st Table of contents:

Chapter 1: From Laboratory to Museum: the Changing Culture of Science and Experiment in India, circa 1830-1856

• (This chapter likely explores the early development and perception of scientific and technological innovation, including the telegraph, within the Indian context before its widespread imperial application.)

Chapter 2: The Telegraph and the Uprisings of 1857

• (This chapter will likely focus on the critical role of the telegraph during the Indian Rebellion of 1857, analyzing its impact on British military and administrative responses, and perhaps indigenous perceptions of the new technology.)

Chapter 3: The Discipline of Technology

• (This chapter might delve into how the telegraph imposed new forms of discipline, standardization, and control within the imperial administration, affecting communication protocols, information flow, and decision-making.)

Chapter 4: Making the Twain Meet: the New Imperialism of Telegraphy

• (This chapter probably examines how the telegraph facilitated a new phase of imperialism, shrinking distances and enabling more rapid and centralized control, thereby intensifying the British hold over India and its integration into global networks.)

Chapter 5: The Magical Mystery Tour: Cable Telegraphy

• (This chapter focuses on the significant development of submarine telegraph cables, connecting India directly to Britain and the wider global network, and the broader implications of this 'instant' communication.)

Chapter 6: Telegraphic Panic and the Imperial Nervous System

• (This chapter likely explores the core theme of the book – how the speed of telegraphic communication could also exacerbate anxieties, crises, and "panics" within the imperial administration, creating a "nervous system" that was both powerful and vulnerable to disruption or misinformation.)

Chapter 7: The Telegraphic Subject and Everyday Life

• (This chapter might shift focus to the impact of the telegraph on the everyday lives and perceptions of people in India, both British and Indian, exploring how it reshaped concepts of time, distance, and even identity in the imperial context.)
