About this title

Synopsis

In this introduction to a small nation in the Indian Ocean, Bowman examines the historical process that brought people to Mauritius, an island with no indigenous population. He explores the period of French and English colonialism, the post World War II independence movement, and the political and economic systems that have thrived since independence. He emphasizes a central theme of Mauritian political life: the need to develop a sense of nationhood that can compete with the particularistic claims of ethnic, religious, and linguistic diversity.
