520 _aThe evolution of the concept of swadeshi from its origins during the protest against the partition of Bengal in 1905 to the Civil Disobedience Movement, 1930–34, focusing on the nationwide boycott of Binny’s goods and the management’s resistance, documented in its extensive correspondence with the government, is the focus of the paper. While resistance to colonial rule forms the substrate all through, in its original phase, swadeshi pitted Indianness against foreign imposition, whereas, during Civil Disobedience, swadeshi also embodied the hegemony of the Congress over determining what was in India’s national interest. –Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2026/8/special-articles/swadeshi-congress-hegemony.html
