Talk:Great Famine of 1876–1878

2908:ʿAlamgir​ (r. 1658–1707) each fought his way to the throne. Then each reshaped Akbar’s institutions, often overstretching the empire’s technology and weakening bonds among its components. Even as imperial expenditures rose, resistance by regional rulers and local communities periodically reduced revenues. Global climate changes​ brought periodic El Niño​ events, so droughts ​compounded famines​​ caused by imperial policies and regional wars. (p 102) ... Despite the vast treasury he inherited – about 150 percent of the empire’s total annual income – Jahangir’s expenses far exceeded his revenues. Further, his reign was punctuated by strong El Niño​ events and consequent severe droughts​ and famines​​ (1614–16, 1623–24), plus outbreaks of bubonic plague​​ (1619).... The succession war had devastated much of north India, compounded by El Niño​ events which led to droughts​ and then famines​​ in much of India (1660–62). In response, ʿAlamgir officially suspended or abolished some taxes. Further, he performed his charitable obligation as sovereign by increasing food distribution from imperial alms houses. This temporarily aided his exceptionally needy subjects, but his regime did not invest in infrastructure for long-term improvements in their condition. ... The (Mughal) empire had always needed perpetual conquests to capture enemy treasuries and gain productive territories. This income paid for its armies that enabled that expansion and for its administration that collected the revenues. But over ʿAlamgir’s final two decades, the costs of empire came to outweigh the benefits for many mansabdars and subjects. Strong El Niño​ events compounded famines​​ (1685–88) caused by the seemingly endless wars. Neither the imperial center, nor its armies, nor its administration had the policies, technology or manpower to control resources over such a vast territorial expanse and array of regionally based rulers and communities. (page 111)" 2777:"The 1876–78 famine represented a massive policy failure. That such a disaster, involving millions of deaths, had occurred in British-ruled India became known around the world. There were international efforts to raise famine relief funds. The disaster greatly strengthened the position of nationalists like Naoroji and Dutt. And it can even be said to have informed the establishment of the Indian National Congress in 1885.” The crisis also fuelled the arguments of British critics of colonial rule. There is no doubt that the government in Calcutta was concerned that no such disaster should happen again. Indeed, the Famine Commission's remit was 'to collect with the utmost care all information which may assist future administrators in the task of limiting the range or mitigating the intensity of these calamities'.” ... The Famine Commission Report proposed 'Famine Codes' to help government Officers foresee the threat of famine and deliver relief if one occurred. The core of the codes involved establishing large-scale public relief works (e.g. building roads). These works were to be organized at a reasonable distance from people's homes, and they were to provide employment at a subsistence cash wage. It was expected that the demand for food arising from these cash payments would be met by private traders. Also, so-called 'gratuitous' relief was to be made available to people who were unable to work (e.g. the very old). As proposed, the codes represented a systematization of matters of famine relief with the aim of providing timely action. ... (p 138) Dreze argues that the promulgation of the Famine Codes was an important—but not decisive—step towards famine prevention in India. Of course, it was one thing to have the codes, another thing for them to be applied. Nevertheless, versions of the codes were adopted in most provinces. (pp 137-138)" (Dyson, as above) 2964:"In every famine of British India these tensions were evident. Ideology — for example, the fear that interfering with the 'normal course' of trade would do more harm than good — was a severe drag on policy, and probably cost millions of lives between the 186os and 1901. Ultimately, however, those who advocated intervention won the argument, at first saying that the laws of political economy should give way to urgent necessity, and then suggesting that the laws required modification. ... Ultimately, however, those who advocated intervention won the argument. ... the result was additional pressure to modernize the administration ... The result was additional pressure to modernize the administration, to modify the law, and to intervene and invest in Indian society. The two major types of state intervention were the economic and the 'scientific'. Public works — especially roads, bridges, railways and canals — and the communication services (printing, post and telegraph, and later radio and television) represented the most concentrated efforts made under state sponsorship, with education, medical and scientific services (geology, cartography, archaeology, meteorology, agriculture, and so on) developing more patchily. State expenditure on public works rose from around £200 000 in 1840 to £30 500 000 in 1901." 2976:"Technical challenges were often linked to performance of politicians, administrators and engineers who were of the opinion that only the British colonial power was capable of such feats and they were, as the technology itself, evidence of superior civilisation. Each section of the British canals required the efficient use of thousands of workers along the construction route. On the Ganges Canal, for example, one engineer was responsible for the organisation in daily work columns of up to 5,000 men, women and children in addition to hundreds of oxen carts. Alongside the recruitment of workers was also the logistical task of the procurement of construction materials. The logistical and organisational structures were borrowed from the PWD’s experience in work assignments during famine, when thousands of people were employed in famine relief works. Many canal and railway embankment projects, as well as other projects of public utility, were created during such times of desperation and indigence. 123 However, the intensive irrigation did not bring only benefits. As already mentioned in Chapter 4 , intense irrigation and inadequate drainage led to waterlogging and salinisation." 2952:"The theory that the scourge of nearly half a century was caused by poor monsoons – acts of nature for which neither the state nor any human agency was responsible – was believed for a time. However, the virtual elimination of mass famine deaths for most of the twentieth century, when recorded climate data have not been different, makes such a fatalistic explanation unacceptable. The terrible recurrences of sustained food scarcity resulted in part from the rapid commercialization of the agrarian economy beginning in the 1860s. Contributions to the disasters came from the cotton ‘boom’, the development of a national market linked through the railways and the more exacting contractual arrangements for moving food and other commodities regardless of social costs. The impact of these changes on a large and very poor rural population meant that even minor dislocations in food supply could lead to severe mortality unless interventions were made. ... Though the Famine Code was an important commitment by the imperial state, Victorian imperial officials only grudgingly matched this responsibility with programmes that might alleviate poverty and change a backward agriculture." 2819:"Labour migrations during the Great Famine of 1876 -78 were phenomenally high across the provinces. Burma probably received moderately increased supplies of labour from the usual recruiting fields in the Northern Circars, but the famine districts were uninfluenced. It was useless trying to make Burma attractive to the poor — the liberal offers made by authorities to induce large or systematic immigration from Madras into Burma were futile. The populations of the Ceded districts did not take part in the across-sea migration.54 At the beginning of March 1877, the chief commissioner of British Burma addressed the government of India. He proposed that for the benefit of that province, and at the same time to afford relief to famine-stricken districts of the Madras presidency, immediate encouragement should be given to the migration of labourers from the Northern Circars districts to British Burma. This could be done by introducing a system of advances. The Government of India approved the proposal and a grant of nineteen lakhs of rupees was sanctioned to meet the expense of making advances to the migrants in question." 3985:, I'm back to discuss again. I'll try to keep the discussion focused on content, as you desire. Why do I think we should replace the map of British India with that image of famine victims? A few reasons. Firstly, it is more specific to this article. The map of British India might reasonably be put on any number of articles, while this image of famine victims is particular to this disaster. Secondly, it is a better illustration of the lead section and for the article as a whole. The map of British India is good for providing context - as such, it belongs with the background information, where I think it better serves the reader. The image of famine victims is related much more directly to the content of the lead section and the article as a whole. Lastly, why do I prefer that particular image over any other? I think it is more striking and of greater artistic merit. I understand this is subjective, and as I mentioned before, I am more than happy if we remove another image of famine victims later on in the article to address your concerns about "overstuffing" the article with images. Let me know what you think. 2459: 4020:, titled "Deserving objects of gratuitous relief," a mock studio picture, its subjects artificially put together by picking the most emaciated famine victims in the relief camp and making them pose like a family, made by a roving British photographer for a well-heeled crowd in Great Britain that had just woken up to the travails of their Indian empire is the worst kind of picture for the lead. Books have been written about such 19th-century imperialist mis-documentation. As I've already explained, all my ten Indian famine articles have maps in the lead. The reason is very simple. Geography is the most accurate distinguishing information we have about these famines. In every famine for example, after the British became involved in the relief, more people died in the relief camps of cholera before the rains and malaria during and after, not from starvation, though enfeebled they undoubtedly were. If mortality and suffering are what we are attempting to represent, then why should we make a studio picture of starvation alone the picture of the famine? 3646:, all of which you have stated or implied. I don't have a "favorite" famine image, nor am I a "drive-by editor" with an agenda - I'm just a regular editor looking to improve an article I am interested in. I'm glad to hear you're busy, but that doesn't make your preferred version of the article any better. This is not a FA which you shepherded, nor even a GA - it is a regular, unprotected Knowledge article that anyone can edit. I believe that a general map of British India, which is not directly related to the famine, is a worse illustration for the lead section than an image of famine victims. Unless a consensus (of more than just you) decides otherwise, I'm going to reinstate the image change I made shortly. To address your concerns about overwhelming the article with images, I will remove one of the later images of famine victims where there are two close together. 3499:, to be honest, I’m not very convinced by your arguments. The lead image should illustrate the article as a whole, and a striking image of famine victims is fitting for an article on a devastating famine. Having 3-4 images of famine victims in a decent-length article does not seem unduly weighted towards anything, other than that there was a famine, which is beyond dispute. Regarding your second comment, it seems to be that other famine articles are not well-illustrated or documented, so it would make the British look bad to have another photograph on this one? That does not seem sufficient reason to keep from improving this article. If anything, it is an argument for improving the others, whether by addition of prose or images where available. 4266:, I think the details you provide are both interesting and well-worth including in the article, beyond what is already written there. Maybe you could suggest a caption for the Hooper image that would put it in proper context as a lead image for the article? I also agree that the famine map you suggest is an improvement over the general map of British India and should replace the present map in the Background section. The Harral image you suggest is also interesting, but I think that an engraving is in general a less useful illustration than a photo. However, if you'd be amenable to making the Harral image the lead image, I'm happy to compromise, as it addresses my concerns about being specific to this article and directly relevant to the lead. 2827:"In his work on famine in Darfur, Alex de Waal suggested that personal habits and cultural factors determined the likelihood of death to a much greater extent than poverty.2 In Madras, however, socioeconomic indicators were indeed accurate predictors of who died during the famine. The great majority of Alexander Porter's 'sample' were agricultural labourers from the Pariah and Palli castes, as well as several weavers and potters.12 Landownership and caste — both strong predictors and indices of social and economic status in nineteenth-century Madras —greatly determined the chances of life or death during the famine of 1876-78. This is corroborated by data from the census of 1881. " 1365:, if you truly believe someone copied your work, than file an action/complaint with Google Books, Publisher and/or court. I will bet you will not. You are dishonest, provided zero evidence the author of this book copied from you. That is a big claim coming from an individual who edits Wiki with a racist-Eurocentric POV. What credentials do you have besides editing Wiki before I was in middle school? Again, support your claim that the author copied you by filing action/complaint with Google Books, publishers, courts; again, you will not, since you promote a racist-Eurocentric POV pusher who is heavily dishonest. Go ahead and call me and my work " 4181:, Lordy, I don't know what has convinced you my motives are so scurrilous, but I have not once yet threatened to take you to ANI or, as best I can tell, accused you of anything worse than ownership behavior. But that charge, frankly, is looking 100% accurate. They are not, as you say twice, "my famine articles." They are Knowledge articles that belong to everyone. I agree that you have definitely lost your cool and I would encourage you to take a step back and look at the big picture - disengage and consider whether this dispute is worth your time and energy. I'm happy to wait a few more days and continue the discussion then if you would like. 2754:
dysentery, diarrhoea) doubtless contributed too. In large part, this peak reflected the crowding of huge numbers of starving individuals in the terrible conditions which prevailed in relief camps and other places where people massed (e.g. around towns). The second peak in deaths coincided with the resumption of the monsoon rains during the second half of 1877. Again, several diseases, including pneumonia, probably played a part.25 However, most deaths were attributed to 'fever', and it is likely that malaria played a major role. (Dyson, Tim. A Population History of India, page 136, Oxford University Press, 2018)
2796:"(From the Abstract) Were the Indian famines natural (geographical) or manmade (political) in origin? I review the theories of Indian famines and suggest that a mainly geographical account diminishes the role of the state in the occurrence and retreat of famines, whereas a mainly political account overstates that role. I stress a third factor, knowledge, and suggest that limited information and knowledge constrained state capacity to act during the nineteenth century famines. As statistical information and scientific knowledge improved, and prediction of and response to famines improved, famines became rarer." 2455: 4323:
happened upon that scene, that they remained frozen in that state of depletion in front of an Englishman (i.e. of the colonial ruling class) and his party (for Hooper would have needed translators), especially in those early days of photography when any movement would have blurred the photograph. A map remains the best option. As I've done in some other images in the leads of Indian famine articles, I am happy to more clearly demarcate the boundaries of the famine regions. I will do this sometime in the near future, and will base it on the Indian famine map

That is because the women and children (who had been abandoned by the men in their lives) had made their way to the cities and begun to die on the sidewalks. It became an enduring image of the famine. Please also see the other pictures I have added on that page from Indian photographers that garnered some praise from Paul Greenough the author of the major book on the famine. In other words, when pictures became representative, I made an effort to find them. 2734:
economy and society. British laissez faire famine policies led to millions of deaths (Davis 2002). Indians, and some Britons ​and Europeans (including Karl Marx) criticized the evident discrepancy between the government’s often incompetent and brutal behavior versus its claims of conquest over nature and protection of public interests through British-driven “modernization.” (Fisher, Michael H..

The disagreement was about whether this kind of sentence (which seems to only drop names without giving us the arguments put forward in the disagreement) deserves its own section, especially when it follows the mortality estimates in which the discussion is scholarly. Now you seemed to have changed the sentence we had disagreed about and also 2311:
the sources are in the section above it. That section also contains the contributions of authors much more notable in the historiography of South Asia and of this famine, than the three gentlemen of the disagreement.

We have here the opposite, only names, only a mention of the argument, but without its content.

However, the sad thing about the source (which was published in 2012) is that its section on the Great Famine of 1876–1878 has been copied almost verbatim from this famine article, which I wrote in 2008.

neologism for a planned, direct, total, evisceration of a nation, ethnic group, or race, or whether Davis's characterization of it as "genocide," is of due weight in the historiography of Indian famines. None of the sources I've looked at (outside of the genocide generalists) ever make that point, even remotely.
2879:"India was largely free of famine under the Mogul emperors, but British administrators refused to follow the Mogul example of laying in sufficient emergency grain stocks.

I'm sorry, you have not established a consensus. The boundaries of British India changed throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. So, a map of ca 1880 is very relevant to a famine of 1876–78. All the India famine articles have maps in the lead. They have been on Knowledge for a dozen years; they

The RfC, for me, is not about whether there were ill-effects of British policy (they are already in the article, and will be even more so after the revision), or whether Davis's work should be noted (it already is noted in the article), but whether the famine was ever a "genocide," a 20th century
