Focusing on Mauritius, this study explores the complex interplay of ethnicity, nationalism, and identity politics within a diverse society characterized by multiple languages and religions. The author examines how ethnicity is shaped by political, economic, and kinship factors, while also highlighting the emergence of alternative forms of belonging, such as nationhood, gender, and class. By analyzing these dynamics, the book contributes to broader discussions on multiculturalism and the evolving nature of collective identity in contemporary contexts.
