Join us for a talk with Dan Slater on “Mischief of the Franchise: The Grant of Universal Suffrage in British Ceylon (Sri Lanka), 1927-28.” What prompted a white ruling elite to grant universal suffrage to a population of color for the very first time in modern history? This presentation discusses the surprising and puzzling decision by the colonial Donoughmore Commission to extend the franchise in British Ceylon (present-day Sri Lanka) in 1927-28, offering a novel account for both why and how suffrage expansion unfolds in the absence of either elite or popular pressures to expand voting rights.
