DESCRIPTION:A critical examination of ‘post-colonial capitalism’ must 
 begin by tracing the genealogy of the concept to debates about the late co
 lonialism that post colonial capital is post. After the first decades of i
 ndependent development\,  the study of post-colonial capital has been join
 ed – and for many replaced - by ‘subaltern studies’\, ‘Saidian pos
 t-colonial studies’\, and the theses of Sanyal. In the light of this gen
 ealogy we can ask further questions: 1) whether the study of contemporary 
 capitalism in India needs the concept of ‘post-colonial’ at all\; and 
 2) whether what is needed is not rather the study of Indian capital in tra
 nsition to a US-managed neo-colonial regime.\n\nBarbara Harriss-White: Eme
 ritus Professor of Development Studies and Fellow of Wolfson College. Comm
 itted to fieldwork\, she has been studying India’s up-country developmen
 t since driving from Cambridge there in 1969 – in retirement: the econom

 ural Commercial Capital won the Edgar Graham prize for originality in deve
 lopment studies. Her most recent book is ‘Gold in India’ (CUP).\nSpeak
