Marx and India


Once India throws off the yoke... (p 85-86). Example of kind of thought or logic many thinkers and colonizers have at this time. 
In addition there is a desire to re-imagine India??

Marx is a kind of racist at the end. When he describes the indians as "slow" and being "calm" but perhaps not in a positive way. Marx suffers from a certain kind of depiction of the world and does not relate to the people of India in a direct sense. Rather he is a man who thinks he can acknowledge certain traits of India without actually being there 

---- he notes the British Administrators. He notes that there are people who are "taking advantage"of the Indian peoples.
