  • Ashutosh Kumar, Indian Nationalists and End of the Indentured Emigration, Occasional Paper Series No
    Indians Against the Indenture System Introduction During colonial India more than a million Indian workers traversed across the oceans on the sugar plantations of European capitalists. This huge global migration of Indians was propelled by the British Government under the pressure of sugar speculators/planters who were depressed with the outlawing of slavery from the empire by the British Parliament in 1833. The British capitalists, who had their sugar plantations in the Caribbean, dominated the British Parliament at the time. Sugar, in the beginning of the nineteenth century became one of the most desirous ingredients in the British and European diet. Hence, sugar was at the heart of the global capitalism. Slaves who were deputed on the plantations did not choose to remain be on the plantations once the abolition was announced. The scheme of apprenticeship became unsuccessful. To mitigate the problem of labour on the sugar plantations, William Gladstone, a prominent planter parliamentarian and father of James Gladstone – who was the future Prime Minister and the British Liberal Party statesman, took a lead role in designing a new system of labour supply. For experiment, he tapped some hill coolies from Bengal in August 1834 and transported them to his plantations in Mauritius. India at the time was over populated. He found India as suitable place for plantation labour. The trial India labour gone between 1834 and 1837 under which an agreement had to sign by parties, labourers and planters. Around 7000 labourers reached Mauritius during the period. (Kumar, 2017:57). In 1837 the British parliament passed a law to legalize the introduction of Indian labourers under a system of contract, known as the indenture system.

  • Congress Socialists and the Politics of Language in India Introduction
    Congress Socialists and the politics of language in India - Shubhneet Kaushik, Ph. D scholar at JNU, New Delhi Introduction The very first definition of the term ‘language’ that we encountered in our school‐days ran follows: ‘Language is the medium of expression’. But this basic definition limits itself to a task that languages usually performs, not the definition of ‘language’ per se. Throughout the vast span of human history, languages played a significant role, in not only enhancing the understanding of human societies, within and without, enriched the vast arena of human experiences and interactions, but also helped us in multiple ways to communicate our ideas, in processing our thoughts in our mind, and in shaping our personalities in varied ways. Biblical story of the Tower of Babel, and God saying: ‘Come, let us go down and confound their speech’; persisted even now up to some extent, and so to say even obstructed the channels of interaction between human societies often. The equations of ‘power, ideology, and hegemony’ also in one way or another had influenced the discourse of language. And in this whole process, language played a key role, it served as a medium through which ideas are conveyed, from one corner of the world to another; in the hands of the people of the one‐time colonies it became a powerful tool through which, they encountered the colonial project of the ‘colonizing’ their body and mind, so to free themselves of the subjugation and exploitation imposed by colonial rule on them. In our times, to which an eminent historian of our age had called ‘Age of Extremes’, languages are increasingly playing and would play in future the important role of as being one of constituent elements of the process summarily called the ‘identity formation’.
