Indentured Muslims in the Diaspora: Identity and Belonging of Minority Groups in Plural Societies
Maurits Hassankhan
Identity and Belonging of Minority Groups in Plural Societies. The focus of most studies on Indian indenture has been almost exclusively on Hindu religion and culture, even though an estimated seventeen percent of migrants were Muslims. This book thus fills an important gap in the indentured historiography, both to understand that past as well as to make sense of the present, when Muslim identities are undergoing rapid changes in response to both local and global realities. The book includes a chapter on the experiences of Muslim indentured immigrants of Indonesian descent who settled in Suriname.
