Anglo-Indian Identity
We're Hands-On People’
This study of a remote Aboriginal community in Australia’s Northern Territory in 2014 sought to understand diabetes from a local Aboriginal perspective. Participants drew on a variety of holistic healing methods in the absence of an individual or individuals identified as holding a healing role in the community. The study offers an alternative to the common assumption that all communities can identify specific individuals as Aboriginal healers wh…
Religion as capital
Religion is an important marker of identity for India’s Anglo-Indians. It distinguishes them within the principally non-Christian context and is integral to socializing youth to their distinct Anglo-Indian culture and heritage. This can be observed in Anglo-Indian practice—attending Christian schools, church-going, celebrating religious festivals, making pilgrimages—which forms a significant part of a matrix through which young Anglo-Indians lear…
Anglo-Indian reunions
The Anglo-Indian diaspora is a result of the accelerated migration of Anglo-Indians from India to (mainly) Commonwealth countries after India gained independence from Britain in 1947. This article examines the World Anglo-Indian reunions that are now held every 3 years in one or another of the diaspora cities in which they have made their homes. It interrogates what it is about these week-long events that bring thousands of Anglo-Indians to them,…
Anglo-Indian Residential Care Homes
Christianity as an Indian Religion
Anglo-Indians originated in India in the seventeenth century as a result of colonialism. They aligned themselves culturally with the West rather than with India—being English speaking, Western in outlook, and Christians. Indian Independence in 1947 led to a sense of deep unease about their future in India, which resulted in a significant trend of migration from the community to English-speaking Commonwealth countries. The Western lifestyle of tho…
Quiting India
In my work with the Anglo-Indians in Calcutta I was reminded of Caplan's (1995) comment that Anglo-Indians had a 'culture of emigration', as I observed a steady stream of Anglo-Indians leaving India. Even though destination opportunities are being eroded, the Anglo-Indians I spoke with regularly referred to relatives living abroad, and in the main wanted to emulate this pattern of migration. In this paper I draw particularly on case study materia…
