The Indian Ocean world has a rich history of socio-economic and
cultural exchanges across time and space. This book and its
companion, Merchants and Ports in the Indian Ocean World, explore
these connections around the wider Indian Ocean world. The book
examines the many overlapping linkages that existed from the early
modern period and into the colonial era. It offers a clear
understanding of the economic networks that extended across the
Indian Ocean and the Atlantic during the 19th century. With a
critical historical lens, the volume discusses themes like the
opium trade in the Malay-Indonesian Archipelago - the biggest opium
trade market at the time; the Safavid mission to Siam; and the
economic relationship between Pondicherry and West Africa, via
France. Rich in archival material, this book will be of interest
for scholars and researchers of Indian Ocean history, maritime
history, Indian history, economic and commercial history, South
Asian history, and social history, anthropology, and trade
relations in general.
