Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unveiling the Chola Navy: A Saga of Trade, Warfare, and Domination on the Indian Ocean The Chola Dynasty, a powerful South Indian empire (300 BC – 1280 AD), reigned supreme not just on land, but also on the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean. Their formidable navy, a force to be reckoned with for centuries, played a pivotal role in shaping the course of South Asian history. This comprehensive exploration delves into the fascinating world of the Chola navy, unveiling its secrets, strategies, and enduring legacy. From Humble Beginnings to Unmatched Power: The Chola naval story isn't one of instant dominance. It's a captivating narrative of strategic vision, innovative shipbuilding practices, and a highly skilled and disciplined fighting force. Leveraging their strategic location on the Coromandel Coast, the Cholas meticulously built their maritime might. Their meticulously designed ships, constructed from robust timbers and employing advanced techniques, were marvels of engineering for their time. Beyond the Battlefield: A Web of Trade and Diplomacy The Chola legacy extends far beyond the thunder of cannons and clash of steel. Their mastery of the seas fostered a vibrant maritime trade network, connecting South India to the riches of Southeast Asia and beyond. Spices, textiles, and exotic commodities flowed freely along these routes, enriching both the Cholas and their trading partners. However, the Cholas weren't just warriors and merchants. They were also skilled diplomats. Their naval power served as a powerful tool for forging strategic alliances and peaceful interactions with other kingdoms. This diplomacy facilitated a vibrant cultural exchange across the Indian Ocean, with Hindu artistic influences and religious practices leaving their mark on Southeast Asia. Shaping the Maritime Landscape: A Legacy for the Ages The Chola impact wasn't confined to their era or geographical boundaries. Their innovative shipbuilding techniques and cunning naval tactics influenced other maritime powers across Asia. From advancements in hull construction for enhanced maneuverability to strategies for outsmarting larger opponents, the Chola legacy is evident in the development of naval warfare throughout the region. Unearthing the Past: A Quest for Knowledge The story of the Chola navy is a captivating puzzle, with many pieces yet to be discovered. Historians and archaeologists face the challenge of limited written records and the complexities of underwater archaeology. Yet, with each inscription deciphered, shipwreck artifact recovered, or temple carving analyzed, a new chapter unfolds in the narrative of their maritime prowess. A Legacy that Inspires: Lessons from the Lords of the Sea The Chola saga transcends mere historical interest. It offers valuable insights into the intricate relationship between maritime power, trade, and cultural exchange. In today's interconnected world, their story serves as a reminder of the importance of innovation, strategic planning, and peaceful collaboration. The Chola navy's mastery of the Indian Ocean continues to inspire scholars and history enthusiasts alike, a testament to human ingenuity on the vast canvas of the sea.

Book excerpt: In the second half of the seventeenth century the political and ritual relationships between the various elite houses of the kingdom of Cannanore on the Malabar Coast were affected by the shifting patterns in the Indian Ocean maritime trade. This study shows how the Arackal Ali Rajas, the most prominent maritime merchants in early-modern Malabar, managed to fence off the attempts of the Dutch East India Company to gain control of the regional trade, and how they succeeded in maintaining their commercial network across the Indian Ocean intact.

Book excerpt: In this stimulating and authoritative overview, Michael Pearson reverses the traditional angle of maritime history and looks from the sea to its shores - its impact on the land through trade, naval power, travel and scientific exploration. This vast ocean, both connecting and separating nations, has shaped many countries' cultures and ideologies through the movement of goods, people, ideas and religions across the sea. The Indian Ocean moves from a discussion of physical elements, its shape, winds, currents and boundaries, to a history from pre-Islamic times to the modern period of European dominance. Going far beyond pure maritime history, this compelling survey is an invaluable addition to political, cultural and economic world history.

The author examines the geopolitics of the region in historical perspective and describes the evolution of U.S. and Soviet strategy in the Indian Ocean. The central theme of the book is that the naval deployments of the superpowers should be seen in the context of each power's economic and security interests rather than in the context of military rivalry. The book provides an incisive and comprehensive account of U.S. and Soviet strategies in the Indian Ocean by establishing and integrating the links between the economic, political, and strategic dynamics of the situation.

Focusing on the role of religion in the expansion of commerce and exchange across the region, as well as on technology and knowledge transfer, volume II covers shipbuilding and navigation technologies, porcelain production, medicinal knowledge, and mules as a commodity and means of transportation.

This book was released on 2016-07-08 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arabian Seas is a magisterial work on the world political economy (trade, war, power) that explores the intersect of the worlds of Islam (including South and Southeast Asia, the Middle East and East Africa) and the European world-economy (particularly the seafaring Portuguese, Dutch, and British) on the eve of the modern world system. It is likely to become a classic in its field and one of the pillars of the emerging literature in recent years that has begun to recast our understanding of the "early modern history" of Asia and the world economy, underlining the early and long predominance of Asia in the world economy and showing the long and deep ties between European and Asian economic and military interactions. This work centrally addresses current debates on the nature of the early modern world system and the relative strengths of East and West. There are no competitors for this book, but it may be compared with Braudel's masterful studies of the Mediterranean in the sense that it does for the Arabian Seas (Indian Ocean World) spanning South Asia, the Middle East, and the East African Coast and beyond what Braudel did for the Mediterranean.

This book, produced in response to the 50th anniversary of the BIOT's founding, also assesses the impact of the decisions taken in respect of the Territory against a wider background of decolonization while addressing important questions about the lawfulness of maintaining Overseas Territories in the post-colonial era.The chapter ‘Anachronistic As Colonial Remnants May Be...’ - Locating the Rights of the Chagos Islanders As A Case Study of the Operation of Human Rights Law in Colonial Territories is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license via link.springer.com.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book charts the surge and decline in piracy in the early eighteenth century (the so-called "Golden Age" of piracy), exploring the ways in which pirates encountered, obstructed, and antagonised the diverse participants of the British empire in the Caribbean, North America, Africa, and the Indian Ocean. The book's primary focus is on how anti-piracy campaigns were constructed as a result of the negotiations, conflicts, and individual undertakings of different imperial actors operating in the commercial and imperial hub of London; maritime communities throughout the British Atlantic; trading outposts in West Africa and India; and marginal and contested zones such as the Bahamas, Madagascar, and the Bay Islands. It argues that Britain and its empire was not a strong centralised imperial state; that the British imperial administration and the Royal Navy did not have the resources to mount a state-led, empire-wide war against piracy following the sharp increase in piratical attacks after 1716; and that it was only through manifold activities taking place in different colonial centres with varied colonial arrangements, economic strengths, and access to resources for maritime defence - which was often shaped by competing and contradictory interests - that Atlantic piracy was gradually discouraged, although not eradicated, by the mid-1720s.
