The East African Indians mostly reside in the main cities, particularly Nairobi, Dar es Salaam, Zanzibar, Mombasa, Kampala; they can also be found in smaller urban centres and in the remotest of rural townships. They play a leading social and economic role as they work in business, manufacturing and the service industry, and make up a large proportion of the liberal professions. They are divided into multiple socio-religions communities, but united in a mutual feeling of meta-cultural identity. This book aims at painting a broad picture of the communities of Indian origin in East Africa, striving to include changes that have occurred since the end of the 1980's. The different contributions explore questions of race and citizenship, national loyalties and cosmopolitan identities, local attachment and transnational networks. Drawing upon anthropology, history, sociology and demography, Indian Africa depicts a multifaceted population and analyses how the past and the present shape their sense of belonging, their relations with others, their professional and political engagement. This book is a must-read for contemporary researchers, students, policy practitioners as well as the general reader. 606 $aEast Indians$zAfrica, East$xHistory 610 $aidentity 610 $aminorities 610 $aTanzanian society 610 $aIndian communities 610 $aKenyan society 610 $aUgandan society 615 0$aEast Indians$xHistory. 676 $a304.8540676 700 $aMichel$b Adam$4edt$01355010 702 $aAdam$b Michel$cafricanist, 712 02$aInstitut franc?ais de recherche en Afrique, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465323503321 996 $aIndian Africa$93359032 997 $aUNINA
