Interjection 2: Agency and Domestic Workers/Lucy Delap. Bibliography. Notes on the Editors and Contributors. Index. The importance of domestic service as a growing area of occupation and employment in contemporary South Asia is marked by a surprising silence about it in historical scholarship. The second volume of Servants Pasts covers the colonial and postcolonial periods. It lays out the intricate relationship between domestic work and employment in light of the growth of first, new moral regimes under colonialism and second, public avenues of employment under colonial institutions such as the municipality, school and hospital. A reformed language of intimacy, conjugality and duties developed in middle-class households, which impinged on the mistress-servant relationship while a distinct grammar of racialised distancing underpinned the relationship between Europeans and Indians. These changes redefined the social and administrative relationships between state and subjects, masters/mistresses and servants, and more broadly, between colonisers and colonised. At the heart of this book is the claim to push for a domestic turn in the writing of South Asian social history. The essays explore the making of the site of the domestic at each historical conjuncture in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries by exploring its interaction with, and plotting its formation through laws, customs, norms and practices.
