Surendra Gopal
Indian Business Communities in Medieval and Early Modern Eurasia. This pioneering work traces the migration of Indian traders to Russia, Iran, West Asia and South-East Asia in medieval times. The author concludes that Indian traders did not enjoy political and royal support, essential for success. He also affirms that crossing the seas did not lead to social boycott by their caste-men. This taboo came much later, probably with the advent of British rule in the nineteenth century.
