About the book

First published in 1987, Benevolent Neutrality is a detailed, scholarly study of the migration of Indian labourers overseas and their living and working conditions under the iniquitous indenture system. Based largely on unpublished sources, this volume analyses the socio-economic, political and cultural factors which induced a traditionally non-migratory people to leave their motherland for service in distant sugar colonies.
