Settling the Frontier by Robert Nichols

Land, Law and Society in the Peshawar Valley, 1500-1900

Settling the Frontier A political and social history of the Peshawar region in the period 1500-1900. The text examines how the region's residents experienced imperial expansion, technological innovation and the growth of state institutions, yet maintained indigenous power relations and socio-cultural practices.

This political and social history explores how, over several centuries (c.1500-1900), different residents of the Peshawar region experienced imperial expansion (from the Mughals to the British), technological innovation, and the growth of state institutions, while they simultaneously nurtured and transformed indigenous power relations, socio-cultural practices, and a political economy never completely distanced from an earlier pastoral-nomadic heritage.
