{"product_id":"across-the-waves-iain-walker-9789004510098","title":"Across the Waves: Strategies of Belonging in Indian Ocean Island Societies","description":"All the islands of the western Indian Ocean are immigrant societies: Austronesian seafarers, African slaves, Arab traders, South Asian indentured labourers and European plantation owners have all settled, some voluntarily, others less so, on Madagascar and Zanzibar, in the Mascarenes and the Comoros. Successive arrivals often struggle to establish their places in these societies, negotiating their way in the face of antipathy, resistance, even violence, as different claims to belonging conflict. The contributions to this volume take a selection of case studies from across the region, and from different perspectives, contributing to a theorisation of the concept of belonging itself. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Contributors are Patrick Desplat, Franziska Fay, Marie-Aude Fouéré, Akbar Keshodkar, Hans Olsson, Gitanjali Pyndiah, Ramola Ramtohul, Iain Walker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Iain Walker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004510095\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004510098\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Iain Walker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44053103804671,"sku":"9789004510098","price":91.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c1344116-5c3d-4a79-9842-44cdd4ab8ece.jpg?v=1685022429","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/across-the-waves-iain-walker-9789004510098","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
