This collection explores how South Asian migrations in modern
history have shaped key aspects of globalization since the 1830s.
Including original research from colonial India, Fiji, Mexico,
South Africa, North America and the Middle East, the essays explore
indentured labour and its legacies, law as a site of regulation and
historical biography. Including recent scholarship on the legacy of
issues such as consent, sovereignty and skilled/unskilled labour
distinctions from the history of indentured labour migrations, this
volume brings together a range of historical changes that can only
be understood by studying South Asian migrants within a globalized
world system. Centering south Asian migrations as a site of
analysis in global history, the contributors offer a lens into the
ongoing regulation of labourers after the abolition of slavery that
intersect with histories in the Global North and Global South. The
use of historical biography showcases experiences from below, and
showcases a world history outside empire and nation.
