Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Overseas Chinese in Africa to 1911 explores early Chinese knowledge of and contacts with Africa through Chinese literature on Africa and current archeological evidence, suggesting Sino-African trade existed as early as the seventh century. Li provides readers with an uncomplicated history of Chinese in Africa, examining their story from multiple perspectives, using approaches and sources found in economic history, social history, international relations, and migration in world history. While Li maintains the first group of Chinese were prisoners brought by the Dutch from Southeast Asia in the seventeenth century, the vast majority of early Chinese in Africa were “free immigrants” and contract labors that established key communities and organizations. It is these early Chinese which laid foundations for and provide important context in interpreting the recent flow of Chinese migrants and capital into various parts of Africa.The book should be of value to African and world historians, sociologists, anthropologists, and students of African and Asian studies.

Book excerpt: Le but de cette thèse est l'étude de l'évolution globale de la minorité chinoise aux Mascareignes, et plus particulièrement à la Réunion. Elle comprend une introduction et trois grandes parties structurées selon un ordre chronologique. L'introduction dresse un bilan des travaux antérieurs, et présente la problématique personnelle, qui cherche à analyser comment s'est faite l'intégration d'une minorité à la societé d'une colonie française créolophone, dont le statut est devenu celui d'un département à partir de 1946. La première partie évoque les premières introductions de Chinois dans l'archipel, des origines jusqu'au milieu du XIXème siècle, en particulier à partir de 1844 où démarre le premier engagisme. La deuxième partie concerne la formation et la structuration d'une communauté entre 1862 et 1946, elle suit la dissémination des Chinois à travers l'île. L'accent est mis sur leurs choix professionnels, en particulier dans le secteur commercial, au sein de la societé de plantation : les Chinois n'y ont d'autre choix que de se replier sur leur vie communautaire axée autour des associations, des temples, des réseaux interinsulaires, et des formes d'expressions culturelles traditionnelles, en particulier par leurs écoles. La troisième partie porte sur la période allant de 1946 à nos jours, et montre comment la départementalisation a influé sur l'évolution de cette minorité en accélérant son processus d'intégration. Les mutations économiques ont poussé les Chinois à des stratégies de réajustement, d'où de profondes répercussions sur leur vie socio-politique, culturelle et religieuse. La conclusion fait une évaluation de leur parcours et trace des perspectives d'avenir. (Doc-thèses)

Download or read book Slave Trade Profiteers in the Western Indian Ocean written by Hideaki Suzuki and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how slave traders interacted with and resisted the British suppression campaign in the nineteenth-century western Indian Ocean. By focusing on the transporters, buyers, sellers, and users of slaves in the region, the book traces the many links between slave trafficking and other types of trade. Drawing upon first-person slave accounts, travelogues, and archival sources, it documents the impact of abolition on Zanzibar politics, Indian merchants, East African coastal urban societies, and the entirety of maritime trade in the region. Ultimately, this ground-breaking work uncovers how western Indian Ocean societies experienced the slave trade suppression campaign as a political intervention, with important implications for Indian Ocean history and the history of the slave trade.

Download or read book Routledge Handbook of the Chinese Diaspora written by Chee-Beng Tan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-11 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With around 40 million people worldwide, the ethnic Chinese and the Chinese in diaspora form the largest diaspora in the world. The economic reform of China which began in the late 1970s marked a huge phase of migration from China, and the new migrants, many of whom were well educated, have had a major impact on the local societies and on China. This is the first interdisciplinary Handbook to examine the Chinese diaspora, and provides a comprehensive analysis of the processes and effects of Chinese migration under the headings of: Population and distribution Mainland China and Taiwan’s policies on the Chinese overseas Migration: past and present Economic and political involvement Localization, transnational networks and identity Education, literature and media The Routledge Handbook of the Chinese Diaspora brings together a significant number of specialists from a number of diverse disciplines and covers the major areas of the study of Chinese overseas. This Handbook is therefore an important and valuable reference work for students, scholars and policy makers worldwide who wish to understand the global phenomena of Chinese migration, transnational connections and their cultural and identity transformation.

Download or read book Bondage written by Alessandro Stanziani and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-11 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, this book provides the global history of labor in Central Eurasia, Russia, Europe, and the Indian Ocean between the sixteenth and the twentieth centuries. It contests common views on free and unfree labor, and compares the latter to many Western countries where wage conditions resembled those of domestic servants. This gave rise to extreme forms of dependency in the colonies, not only under slavery, but also afterwards in form of indentured labor in the Indian Ocean and obligatory labor in Africa. Stanziani shows that unfree labor and forms of economic coercion were perfectly compatible with market development and capitalism, proven by the consistent economic growth that took place all over Eurasia between the seventeenth and the nineteenth centuries. This growth was labor intensive: commercial expansion, transformations in agriculture, and the first industrial revolution required more labor, not less. Finally, Stanziani demonstrates that this world did not collapse after the French Revolution or the British industrial revolution, as is commonly assumed, but instead between 1870 and 1914, with the second industrial revolution and the rise of the welfare state.

Book excerpt: This work aims to engage with the complexities surrounding evaluations of ethnic and national identity - a focus of recent interest by scholars from a range of disciplines including political science, anthropology and economics - through a case study of Chinese migration to and settlement in Mauritius. The book investigates the complex mechanisms and processes involved in the transplantation of groups of people within the colonial context, and in particular seeks to create a tableau within which the construction of a mythology of migration is set against the realities of negotiation and communication with the wider society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slaves, convicts, and unfree immigrants have traveled the oceans throughout human history, but the conventional Atlantic World historical paradigm has narrowed our understanding of modernity. This provocative study contrasts the Atlantic conflation of freedom and the sea with the complex relationships in the Indian Ocean in the long 19th century.

Download or read book Labor on the Fringes of Empire written by Alessandro Stanziani and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the abolition of slavery in the Indian Ocean and Africa, the world of labor remained unequal, exploitative, and violent, straddling a fine line between freedom and unfreedom. This book explains why. Unseating the Atlantic paradigm of bondage and drawing from a rich array of colonial, estate, plantation and judicial archives, Alessandro Stanziani investigates the evolution of labor relationships on the Indian subcontinent, the Indian Ocean and Africa, with case studies on Assam, the Mascarene Islands and the French Congo. He finds surprising relationships between African and Indian abolition movements and European labor practices, inviting readers to think in terms of trans-oceanic connections rather than simple oppositions. Above all, he considers how the meaning and practices of freedom in the colonial world differed profoundly from those in the mainland. Arguing for a multi-centered view of imperial dynamics, Labor on the Fringes of Empire is a pioneering global history of nineteenth-century labor.
