Abstract

In the second half of 1920s, Joan and Austin Robinson sailed to India and spent about two years in the princely state 0f Gwalior in colonial India. During this period, the Robinsons studied the lopsided economic relationship between the backward Princely India and relatively advanced British India. Their contributions were published in book form, but both the Robinsons and the economics discipline were not aware of it for a long time. Part I tells the story of its discovery and the resulting controversy.
