Fears for the decline of Anglo-Indian cooking
Will Anglo-Indian recipes and cooking disappear in India? It will over a period of time, as Indian cooking starts to be called Anglo-Indian cooking and the authentic anglo-indian recipes are forgotten. Where are the Grandmothers and Mothers of the 1940s-1960s today, who would cook "the genuine" anglo-indian dishes?

Memory, identity and productive nostalgia by Dr. Alison Blunt
Anglo-Indian Home and Identity by Dr. Alison Blunt.
"Home and identity have been important themes in recent work on people of mixed descent and on diaspora (see, for example, Arnott, 1994, Brah, 1996 and Ifekwunigwe, 1999), and have been the central focus of my research on Anglo-Indian women in the fifty years before and after Independence. My research spans the community in India, Britain and Australia, and explores home and identity in relation to imperialism, nationalism, decolonization and multiculturalism on three key scales (Blunt, forthcoming). On a household scale, I investigate social reproduction and material culture and explore the European and Indian influences that have fashioned a distinctively Anglo-Indian domesticity. On a national scale, I study the intersections of home, identity and nationality for Anglo-Indians, and how ideas about Britain as fatherland coexisted with ideas about India as motherland. Finally, I consider transnational geographies of home and identity for Anglo-Indians living both in an imperial diaspora in British India and across a wider diaspora since Independence."
Memory, identity and productive nostalgia:

Provinces of British India
British colonial authorities ruled India with two administrative systems: About 60% of territory of the Indian sub-continent were provinces and territories directly under British colonial administration, 40% of the sub-continent were native Indian ("princely") States under direct treaty relations with British India (A-J and K-Z).

Anglo-Indian Stereotypes by Megan Stuart Mills
"Colonial Studies place the Anglo-Indians within the anti-nationalist European camp in keeping with what Ahmad has described as a descent into 'indigenism'. (1991) The juxtaposition of Europeans against Indians encourages an assumption of unanimous Anglo-Indian identification with British aims."

Skinner versus The East India Company
Skinner v. East India Company (1666) [6 State Trials 709-770]
This case, while primarily famous for it's role in determining the balance of power between the King and Parliament, also shows contemporary legal thought on the relationship of the EIC's settlements in India to metropolitan law. In brief the case revolved around Skinner, an English spice merchant, who went to the went to the House of Lords in an attempt to receive damages from the EIC for seizing a warehouse and island from him in the East Indies. The House of Lords referred the petition to the primary common law court of the land, the King's Bench. The learned justices of the King's Bench gave it as their opinion that such matters “beyond the seas” could not be cognizable in the metropolitan courts.
