SHIFTING SELVES; BIBLIOGRAPHY; INDEXHow does one explain the poverty and marginalization of a group that lives in a remarkably successful economy and peaceful society? A native anthropologist, the author provides critical insight into the dynamics of contemporary Mauritian society. In her meticulously researched study of ethnic, gender and racial discrimination in Mauritius, she addresses debates carried out in many developing societies on subaltern identities, ethnicity, poverty and social injustice. The book therefore also offers important empirical material for scholars interested in the wider Indian Ocean region and beyond.New directions in anthropology ;Volume 26.CreolesMauritiusEthnic identityRacismMauritiusMauritiusRace relationsCreolesEthnic identity.Racism305.8009698/2Boswell Rosabelle1656334MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910809785303321Le malaise créole4104733UNINA
