Description

Explore the complex dynamics of social identity and political culture in the Indian Ocean island-state of Mauritius. This comprehensive study by Bloomsbury examines how ethnicity, nationalism, and multiculturalism function within a diverse population of approximately one million people. Mauritius serves as a unique case study for understanding identity politics and creolization. With fifteen officially spoken languages and four major world religions represented, the island offers a rich landscape for studying how different ethnic groups coexist. This book provides a deep look into the social importance of ethnicity and how it shapes the nation-building process. Readers will find valuable insights into the debates surrounding multiculturalism and identity. By focusing on the specific social structures of Mauritius, this work helps refine theories of nationalism and offers a clearer perspective on how diverse populations navigate political and social life in a modern island-state.
