Social Anthropology

The impact of race legislation on kinship and identity amongst Indian Muslims in Cape Town

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This study focuses on the relationship between the responses of Indian Muslim migrants to the Cape, (based in an Indian group area in Cape Town, called Rylands) and the responses of the environment to Indians. There has been remarkably little work of any nature undertaken concerning Indians in the Cape. The broad anthropological framework emphasises the centrality of the Indians' own perception of their lives, and the significance of the external constraints imposed on them through various means.
