(Harold) The Passing of Empire Produced by Al Haines "The Passing of Empire" by H. Fielding is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book critically examines the British colonial rule in India, focusing on the underlying social and political issues that fueled unrest among the Indian populace. The author emphasizes the human similarities that unite people regardless of customs, aiming to foster a better understanding of India’s needs and aspirations during a time of significant change. The opening of the book sets the stage for an in-depth analysis of the socio-political landscape of India under British rule. Fielding begins by stating that while much discourse about India revolves around its differences from the West, his focus lies on its shared humanity. He discusses the pervasive Indian unrest that, contrary to public perception, is deeply rooted and widespread, rather than merely local or temporary. The narrative highlights the disconnect between the British authorities and the Indian population, emphasizing the importance of understanding the aspirations and grievances of the people for a successful governance model. Through this lens, Fielding proposes to explore historical contexts, governmental structures, and the essential need for a genuine relationship between the rulers and the ruled.
