Is the Anglo-Indian ?identity crisis? a myth?. 330 $aRevisionist in approach, global in scope, and a seminal contribution to scholarship, this original and thought-provoking book critiques traditional notions about Anglo-Indians, a mixed descent minority community from India. It interrogates traditional notions about Anglo-Indian identity from a range of disciplines, perspectives and locations. This work situates itself as a transnational intermediary, identifying convergences and bridging scholarship on Anglo-Indian studies in India and the diaspora. Anglo-Indian identity is presented as hybridised and fluid and is seen as being representative, performative, affective and experiential through different interpretative theoretical frameworks and methodologies. Uniquely, this book is an international collaborative effort by leading scholars in Anglo-Indian Studies, and examines the community in India and diverse diasporic locations such as New Zealand, Britain, Australia, Pakistan and Burma. 606 $aRace 606 $aEthnology 606 $aEmigration and immigration$xSocial aspects 606 $aMass media and culture 606 $aRace and Ethnicity Studies 606 $aSociocultural Anthropology 606 $aEthnography 606 $aSociology of Migration 606 $aMedia Culture 615 0$aRace. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aMass media and culture. 615 14$aRace and Ethnicity Studies. 615 24$aSociocultural Anthropology. 615 24$aEthnography. 615 24$aSociology of Migration. 615 24$aMedia Culture. 676 $a301.451042054 702 $aAndrews$b Robyn 702 $aRaj$b Merin Simi 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483609403321 996 $aAnglo-Indian identity$92850378 997 $aUNINA
