Boats in a Storm: Law, Migration, and Decolonization in South and Southeast Asia, 1942–1962 - South Asia in Motion
Kalyani Ramnath
Drawing on archival research conducted in India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, London, and Singapore, Kalyani Ramnath narrates how former migrants battled legal requirements to revive prewar circulations of credit, capital, and labor, in a postwar context of rising ethno-nationalisms that accused migrants of stealing jobs and hoarding land.
