Indian Diaspora World Convention was held in Trinidad in 2017 to
commemorate the 1917 decision of the Indian legislature to end
further recruitment of Indians for overseas indentured service. The
eleven essays in this second volume cover a wide range under the
heading 'Charting New Frontiers'. It is a diverse collection,
indicating broad scope among the researchers on this theme. The
contributors to this volume think through the conundrum of national
citizenship, in relation to their routes and roots from a variety
of perspectives. The essays compiled in this monograph, thus,
reveal that the subject areas comprising the study of the Indian
diaspora are interdisciplinary in nature and constantly evolving.

What are the dynamics of the abolition of the Indian indentureship
system? Why was it ended? Who were the main players in the final
end of the labour scheme? Were Indian labourers and/or the Indian
middle classes actively involved in the processes leading towards
complete abolition? This book examines the end of a labour system
which lasted from 1838 until 1920 in various territories throughout
the British Empire. It looks at methods of agitations which had
their genesis in the territories of the Indian Ocean and
compare/contrast these with those of other territories such as the
British West Indies. The volume provides a comparative study of the
abolition of the Indian indentureship system and shows the global
interconnectedness of abolition, with a strong subaltern focus.
