This case study of Chinese settlement in Mauritius investigates the complexities of colonial diasporas and sets the construction of a mythology of migration against the realities of the processes of negotiation and communication with the larger society.

Marina Carter obtained her doctorate at Oxford University and has published extensively on the social history of the Mascarene islands, including a number of monographs, co-authored volumes and a host of articles.

James Ng Foong Kwong studied at the University of Reunion [France] where he produced two theses on the subject of Chinese migration to Mauritius. He co-authored Forging the Rainbow: Labour Immigrants in British Mauritius [Alfran, 1997].
