Description

This book provides an illuminating and detailed account of the cultural, social and political revel in of Indians in Grenada. It offers a clear discussion at the system of indenture, plantation life and the Indians? contribution to Grenada?s economy in addition to the circumstances leading to their permanent settlement within the island. The dynamics in their cultural integration and identity formation are examined in keeping with the insights provided by the Creole society model but new categories of analysis are employed within the application of this model. In doing so, the Indians? inability to take care of their traditional culture is clearly explained. The book also seeks to locate and give an explanation for the incorporation of Indians into Grenada?s social structure and explores the character of race relations, particularly, between Indians and Africans. Overall the book brings new insights into the working out of Grenadian society within the period 1857-1950.
