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 institutionsreligion, caste, and familyand cultural elementslanguage, 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. 001449566 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001449566 650_0 $$aEast Indian diaspora$$xSocial conditions. 001449566 650_0 $$aEast Indians$$zCaribbean Area$$xEthnic identity. 001449566 651_0 $$aIndia$$xEmigration and immigration$$xHistory. 001449566 651_0 $$aTrinidad$$xEthnic relations. 001449566 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001449566 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001449566 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aJayaram, N.$$tFrom Indians in Trinidad to Indo-Trinidadians$$dSingapore : Springer,c2022$$z9789811933660 001449566 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aJayaram, N., 1950- author.$$tFrom Indians in Trinidad to Indo-Trinidadians$$z9789811933660$$w(OCoLC)1328015032 001449566 830_0 $$aGeoJournal library. 001449566 852__ $$bebk 001449566 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-3367-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001449566 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1449566$$pGLOBAL_SET 001449566 980__ $$aBIB 001449566 980__ $$aEBOOK 001449566 982__ $$aEbook 001449566 983__ $$aOnline 001449566 994__ $$a92$$bISE
