Given the range, intensity and magnitude of contemporary
transnational migrations, it seems entirely appropriate to
designate this world on the move as comprising, from our
point of view, of Indian transmigrants. The movement and
global adaptations of this population are spread beyond single
home and host societies to multiple locales both vertically and
horizontally. Ravindra Jain s empirical studies in this book
radiate from the vicissitudes of migrants from India to Malaysia
on to those in the Caribbean and further on to Australia. The
spectrum of globalization in our times necessitates
comparisons over still larger territories; therefore, while
focusing on particular Indian transmigrants, East and West,
Jain s
perspectivai
vision encompasses the entire field of
modern Indian diaspora.
As a pioneering and singularly wide-ranging narrative of the
diaspora, based primarily on the author s fieldwork, this book
unravels facets of
socio-cultural
pluralism, hybridization, ethnic
movements, politico-economic mobility and global modernity
over a vast territory. The rich ethnographic detail is interleaved
throughout with acute analysis and interpretation. The
methodology adopted here invites comparisons over a still
wider terrain and is therefore of immense relevance to all
students of globalization, international migration,
socio-cultural
transformation and political economy in the new millennium,
with special reference to the Asia-Pacific region.
