		National Character and the Doon School is to scrutinize the emergence of a new urban Indian cultural out of the "combined enterprise between capital and post-coloniality" (1).
		According to Srivastava, the location of the school on a hill station, away from the metropolitan centers of Calcutta and Delhi provided 'the site of a cultural pedagogy' where the cultural capital of the colonial metropolis was made available to the educated classes of the hinterland.
		Schools such as Doon, Srivastava argues, continue to date to produce an Indian metropolitan middle class who still continue to regard themselves as the guardians of 'the bridge builders between a progressive westernized India and a recalcitrantly regressive India'.
