Jacket photograph: Depiction of the Haspel van Pouchon: a machine that integrates the unwinding and reeling of silk in one process. The method was adopted by the VOC in 1779, some twenty years after the British and some local merchants had started using it in Bengal. In fact, the VOC had long resisted its introduction, as had many of the silk~producing peasants of Bengal. The Dutch thought the method was too expensive while the peasants detested having one stage in the production of silk taken out of their hands, losing part of their income. As we see Indians and Europeans together resisting the new industrial age, the picture symbolises the last phase of the so~called Age of Partnership.
