Introduction -- Indentured Migration to Trinidad: Recruitment, Journey, and Life in the Estate -- Settlement and Community Formation -- Ethnicity and Ethnic Mobilisation -- Elections and the Politicisation of Race and Ethnicity -- Sex-Ratio Disparity and Marriage: Erasures and Reconstitutions -- Family, Kinship, and Gender Relations: Erasures and Reconstitutions -- Religion, Ethnic Protest, and Cultural Contestation -- Religion and Society I: Trinidad Hinduism -- Religion and Society II: Presbyterianism, Islam, and Syncretic Practices -- Culture and the Community: Language and Foodways -- Conclusion.

This book explores the dynamics of the socio-cultural baggage that Indian indentured migrants took with them to the Caribbean island of Trinidad and how they have since become a vibrant diaspora community, namely the Indo-Trinidadians. It combines social history with first-hand fieldwork data to portray human ingenuity in terms of social reconstitution and community building in a hostile socio-cultural environment. Furthermore, it addresses key social institutions-religion, caste, and family-and cultural elements-language, foodways, and ethnicity. Its analytical framework is guided by the concept of metamorphosis; it steers clear of the persistence versus change hypotheses. Given its focus, it will be of interest to students and scholars of sociology, social anthropology, history, and migration and diaspora studies.
