Abstract

Narratives of the Indian revolutionary movement in exile have often focused on abstract notions of 'London'—with a particular focus on 'India House' in Highgate—or 'Paris' without taking into account specific geographies of Indian anti-colonialism within these imperial metropoles. Drawing on addresses provided in intelligence reports, this article takes a spatial approach and explores how particular areas of London and Paris enabled the development of the Indian revolutionary movement in exile in the early twentieth century.
