The Indian Ocean is famously referred to as the "cradle of
globalization," as it facilitated cultural and economic exchanges
between Africa, the Arab world, the Indian subcontinent, Southeast
Asia, and China, for 5000 years prior to European presence in the
region. As this ocean's significance has gained increasing
attention from scholars in recent years, few have examined the
'human' dimensions in Indian Ocean exchanges. Including the work of
historians, geographers, anthropologists and literary analysts,
each essay in this volume addresses a specific human factor, such
as the fate of the creole in the Bay of Bengal, creolization as a
globalized phenomenon, migrancy and diaspora, the lives of
seafarers then and now, and the lives of those who inhabit the
ocean's littoral. This volume is a necessary addition to the field
of Indian Ocean studies.
