By focusing on these points of contact, this book forges critical links between histories of migration and dispossession. The book highlights the legal and spatial strategies of rule mobilized by Indian agents, missionaries, and legal authorities who sought to restrict crossracial encounters. Mawani illustrates how interracial proximities in one colonial contact zone inspired the production of juridical racial truths and modes of governance that continue to linger in the racial politics of contemporary settler societies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Renisa Mawani\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0774816333\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780774816335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of British Columbia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2009 pg. 68","brand":"Renisa Mawani","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48443677212927,"sku":"9780774816335","price":37.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dc50af10-a915-42c7-a023-54afe26810d7.jpg?v=1777207072","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/colonial-proximities-renisa-mawani-9780774816335","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
