520 |a How does one explain the poverty and marginalization of a group that lives in a remarkably successful economy and peaceful society? A native anthropologist, the author provides critical insight into the dynamics of contemporary Mauritian society.

The book therefore also offers important empirical material for scholars interested in the wider Indian Ocean region and beyond.
