The present work brings to completion the author’s work From Sultanat to the Mughals, a volume devoted to the Delhi Sultanat having been published earlier. Tracing the rise and fall of the Mughal empire upto 1761, an attempt has been made to probe the basis on which the Mughals mobilized support for themselves and the nature of the polity they evolved. The societal, economic, political, administrative and ideological challenges faced by an essentially liberal polity and the role of Aurangzeb have been carefully analyzed. The author contends that if a regional balance of power based on states with different social structure had been stabilised, some parts of India could under favourable circumstances, have moved in the direction of capitalism.
