Plantation to politics: Studies on Fiji Indians

---

Plantation to Politics: Studies on Fiji Indians by Ahmed Ali presents a detailed examination of the historical, social, and political development of the Indo-Fijian community. The book traces the arrival of Indian indentured laborers to Fiji’s sugar plantations during the colonial period and analyzes how their experiences shaped a unique ethnic and cultural identity. Ali explores the transformation of plantation workers into an increasingly organized political force, highlighting the growth of leadership structures, labor movements, and political parties within the Indo-Fijian population. The work also investigates issues of ethnicity, migration, economic struggle, and the impact of colonial policies on social relations in Fiji. Through archival research and socio-political analysis, the author provides insight into the complex dynamics between Indo-Fijians, indigenous Fijians, and the colonial government. The book remains an important resource for understanding Fiji’s political evolution and the historical foundations of contemporary ethnic and political challenges.
