Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract This study demonstrates how Indians with French citizenship were able through their stay in Indochina to have some say in shaping their position within the French colonial empire, and how in turn they made then' mark on Indochina itself. Known as ‘renouncers’, they gained their citizenship by renoimcing their personal laws in order to to be judged by the French civil code. Mainly residing in Cochinchina, they served primarily as functionaries in the French colonial administration, and spent the early decades of their stay battling to secure recognition of their electoral and civil rights in the colony. Their presence in Indochina in turn had an important influence on the ways in which the peoples of Indochina experienced and assessed French colonialism. Indochina was important to French India from the late-nineteenth century, I maintain, because of the way renouncers were able to develop social and political agendas over long distances to secure their rights within the French empire. I further the study of late-colonial migrations from British India by adding a trajectory under French colonial conditions to other better-known itineraries. I advance thinking on migration by showing how movements stimulated the circulation not just of goods and labour but of ideas. I support claims that colonised peoples were not passive agents, and bring to the fore the struggles o f colonised people fighting not against, but within a colonial framework. I reinstate the Indian presence in the colonial histoiy of Vietnam, not only to support the restoration to southern Vietnam of its historical social diversity, or to draw attention to long-neglected minority groups. The thesis, I argue, brings new insights to the complexities of colonial encounters. The presence of Indian French citizens in colonial Indochina generated encounters between Indians and Vietnamese which were outside of French control. In so doing it highlighted not the strengths but the inherent weaknesses of colonial rule. 2 Table of Contents Abstract 2 Table of Contents 3 Acknowledgements 5 Glossary 9 List of Illustrations and Tables 10 Abbreviations 11 PART ONE 13 Chapter One: introduction 14 C o n t e x t a n d o v e r v ie w 14 Ma in a r g u m e n t , t h e o r y a n d l it e r a t u r e 19 S o u r c e s a n d methodology 38 T e r m s a n d s p e l l in g 41 P eriodisation 45 C h a p t e r s u m m a r y 4 6 Chapter Two: Legal Status and other markers of identity 51 ‘Renunciation ’, it s o r ig in s a n d o f f ic ia l endorsement 5 1 W h o t h e r e n o u n c e r s w e r e a n d w h a t t h e y s o u g h t 57 T HE EXTENT OF RENUNCIATION, AT HOME AND OVERSEAS 64 Lin k s t o In d o c h in a 66 Indian renunciation and A n n a m it e naturalisation compared 72 Re n o u n c e r s ’ l e g a l r ig h t s in C o c h in c h in a 73 S t a t u s in C o c h in c h in a o f o t h e r m ig r a n t s To f In d ia n o r ig in 77 C o n c l u s io n 83 Chapter Three: Renouncer occupations and wider Tamil networks 85 Re n o u n c e r s in t h e c o l o n ia l administration 87 A SUPPRESSED PROFESSIONAL CLASS 96 E m p l o y e e s o f p r iv a t e F r e n c h f ir m s 97 CAREER SOLDIERS AND MILITARY SERVICE 98 ‘In d ia n s h o p s ’ a n d r e l a t e d n ic h e s o f M u slim e n t e r p r is e 100 N a t tu k o t t a i C h e t t ia r s a n d o t h e r T am il b a n k e r s 103 Liv e s t o c k , t r a n s p o r t , a n d milk 108 TAX FARMS AND GOVERNMENT TENDERS 112 U r b a n a n d r u r a l l a n d investments 1 15 P u r v e y o r s t o S a ig o n ’s expatriates 120 T EACHERS OF TAMIL CHILDREN 122 C o n c l u s io n 125 Illustrations 128 3 PART TWO 140 Chapter Four: Electoral Franchise 141 N a t iv e s u f f r a g e in t h e ‘o l d c o l o n ie s ’ a n d t h e ‘n e w ’ 141 E a r l y l ic e n s e a t t h e C ochinchinese b a ll o t b o x 145 T h e In d ia n v o t e c o n t e s t e d 146 T h e 1 8 8 8 D e p u t y e l e c t io n s : a l a s t - m in u t e r e s c u e f o r t h e In d ia n v o t e 151 THE CANDIDATES AND THEIR CAMPAIGNS 153 E l e c t io n d a y a n d t h e o u t c o m e 159 A DEFINITIVE LEGAL RULING 161 T h e ‘LEGEND’ OF INDIAN VOTERS: A POWERFUL BUT MALLEABLE FORCE 164 D e v o t e d d e p u t ie s 167 P o litical disillusion 172 C o n c l u s io n 176 Chapter Five: Renouncer functionaries and ‘European’ contractual privileges 178 ‘E u r o p e a n ’ a g e n t s a n d t h e b a d g e o f assimilation 180 T r o u b l e s w ith 'n a t iv e s t a t u s ’ 191 THE CAMPAIGN TO DEFEND SAIGON’S INDIAN POLICEMEN 197 Informal exclusion and the persistence of ‘native cadres’ 212 Conclusions 217 Chapter Six: Vietnamese Engagement with Renouncers and other Indian Migrants 219 G ilbert Chieu: ‘Hit the C h e t and expel the C h aV 221 T h e C onstitutionalists a n d N g u y e n A n N in h : ‘La q u e s t io n in d ie n n e ’ 227 G r a s s r o o t s r e s p o n s e s a n d increasingly t r o u b l e d r e l a t io n s 23 6 Re l ig io u s accommodation 245 Re a c t io n s t o t h e p r o s p e c t o f k in sh ip 24 6 C o n c l u s io n 2 5 4 Chapter Seven: Raising the Hindou Profile 255 C h a n n e l s o f e x p r e s s i o n 2 5 6 M o d e r n m e n , h is t o r ic a l p u r p o s e 265 U nity a n d d is c o r d 275 In the in terest o f ALL HINDOUS 285 C o n c l u s io n 2 9 4 Conclusion 296 Bibliography 303 A r c h iv e s a n d r e c o r d s 303 S er ia l Ru n s 30 4 B o o k s a n d A r t ic l e s 30 4 INTERNET SITES 31 6 Appendices 317 A p p e n d ix I: Text of the ‘D ecree relative to personal status’, 21 S e p t e m b e r 1881 318 Appendix II: The steam boat ventures of Darmanaden Prouchandy 320 A p p e n d ix III: French Indian social organisations in Cochinchina,1900-1940 3 2 4 4 Acknowledgements I am grateful for financial assistance received from several quarters.

Cooper Thesis submitted for the Qualification of Ph.D. University of Warwick. French Department. September 1997. Summary This thesis focuses upon French colonial discourses at the height of the French imperial encounter with Indochina: 1900-1939. It examines the way in which imperial France viewed her role in Indochina, and the representations and perceptions of Indochina which were produced and disseminated in a variety of cultural media emanating from the metropole. Framed by political, ideological and historical developments and debates, each chapter develops a socio-cultural account of France's own understanding of her role in Indochina, and her relationship with the colony during this crucial period. The thesis asserts that although consistent, French discourses of Empire do not present a coherent view of the nation's imperial identity or role, and that this lack of coherence is epitomised by the Franco-indochinese relationship. The thesis seeks to demonstrate that French perceptions of Indochina were marked above all by a striking ambivalence, and that the metropole's view of the status of Indochina within the Empire was often contradictory, and at times paradoxical.

One of the critical resources that the feudal government in Cochinchina smartly enlisted and attracted is the Chinese immigrant groups living in Vietnam. Keywords: Cochinchina government, Nguyen clan, Chinese, Policy, Vietnam. I. Overview of the Migration of Chinese to Cochinchina. It is possible to generalize the process of Chinese migration toward Cochinchina into three following stages: Phase 1: From the end of the 16th century to the year 1645. This period has two main events affecting the migration of Chinese to Cochinchina, namely: In 1567, Longqing Emperor (China) issued an ordinance allowing his civilians to go abroad for trading after almost 200 years of maintaining maritime order banning (Vietnamese: Thốn bản bất hạ hải) - do not give permission for an inch of wood to overseas. The second event was Nguyen Hoang’s returning to Thuan - Quang in 1600, began to implement the idea of secession.

  • The Religious Lifeworlds of Canada's Goan and Anglo-Indian Communities
    Brown Baby Jesus: The Religious Lifeworlds of Canada’s Goan and Anglo-Indian Communities Kathryn Carrière Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the PhD degree in Religion and Classics Religion and Classics Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Kathryn Carrière, Ottawa, Canada, 2011 I dedicate this thesis to my husband Reg and our son Gabriel who, of all souls on this Earth, are most dear to me. And, thank you to my Mum and Dad, for teaching me that faith and love come first and foremost. Abstract Employing the concepts of lifeworld (Lebenswelt) and system as primarily discussed by Edmund Husserl and Jürgen Habermas, this dissertation argues that the lifeworlds of Anglo- Indian and Goan Catholics in the Greater Toronto Area have permitted members of these communities to relatively easily understand, interact with and manoeuvre through Canada’s democratic, individualistic and market-driven system. Suggesting that the Catholic faith serves as a multi-dimensional primary lens for Canadian Goan and Anglo-Indians, this sociological ethnography explores how religion has and continues affect their identity as diasporic post- colonial communities. Modifying key elements of traditional Indian culture to reflect their Catholic beliefs, these migrants consider their faith to be the very backdrop upon which their life experiences render meaningful. Through systematic qualitative case studies, I uncover how these individuals have successfully maintained a sense of security and ethnic pride amidst the myriad cultures and religions found in Canada’s multicultural society. Oscillating between the fuzzy boundaries of the Indian traditional and North American liberal worlds, Anglo-Indians and Goans attribute their achievements to their open-minded Westernized upbringing, their traditional Indian roots and their Catholic-centred principles effectively making them, in their opinions, admirable models of accommodation to Canada’s system.

  • Localization and the Chinese Overseas: Acculturation, Assimilation, Hybridization, Creolization, and Identification
    Cultural and Religious Studies, February 2018, Vol. 6, No. 2, 73-87 doi: 10.17265/2328-2177/2018.02.001 D DAVID PUBLISHING Localization and the Chinese Overseas: Acculturation, Assimilation, Hybridization, Creolization, and Identification TAN Chee-Beng Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China Based on materials on the localized Chinese overseas, including the Melaka Babas, who are mostly Malay-speaking Chinese, this article reflects on the use of such terms as acculturation and assimilation, as well as hybridization and creolization, in relation to highly localized Chinese. All these concepts are seen as different ways of describing cultural formation in transcultural context. In particular, the relevance of using creolization to refer to the kind of creative process of cultural formation beyond its original usage in the Caribbean is discussed. This results in the identification of fragmented creolization as in the case of the Caribbean and a rooted creolization as in the case of the Babas. The author shall first discuss the issues of assimilation and integration, followed by hybridization and creolization. This is followed by the discussion on localization of Chinese overseas and identity. The concluding section provides some remarks on the concepts reviewed, and three main categories of acculturated Chinese are identified, namely, Chinese who are linguistically assimilated but still observe major Chinese traditions, Chinese who are so acculturated to the mainstream society that they hardly practice Chinese traditions, and Chinese who are both highly localized and highly mixed “racially”. Keywords: acculturation and assimilation, hybridization, creolization, localization and identity, Baba, Chinese overseas Introduction1 A noticeable feature of Chinese overseas is their local cultural adaptation.
