Sommario/riassunto

In this original study British rule in Burma is examined through quotidian acts of corruption. Saha outlines a novel way to study the



colonial state as it was experienced in everyday life, revealing a complex world of state practices where legality and illegality were inseparable: the informal world upon which formal colonial power rested.
