 Towards a Postcolonial Modernity: AsiaSource Interview with Partha Chatterjee
The political science department at Rochester was one of the earliest departments that focused on rational choice theory.
The Subaltern Studies answer was that peasants always had their own reasons for joining or not joining this sort of politics.
It is in the same period that many new kinds of social movements emerged in India, and these social movements tried to use a whole range of completely new forms of mobilization, using the power of the vote, using the kinds of new opportunities made available through the framework of broadly liberal rights.

Chatterjee is Professor of Political Science at the Centre for Studies in Social Sciences, Calcutta, India, and simultaneously Professor of Anthropology at Columbia University, U.S.A. He was a founding member of the subaltern studies group of historians.
The subaltern studies collective began as a group of historians of India who felt, in the early 1980s, that Indian history was limited because it adopted a nationalist perspective.
