About the Book
In 1972, Ugandan president Idi Amin expelled close to 80,000 South Asians of Ugandan heritage from the country by dictatorial decree. In
Insecurities of Expulsion
, Anneeth Kaur Hundle revisits this weighty historical event, arguing that it is neither an exceptional nor a parochial event, neither a result of primordial Afro-South Asian racial conflict nor an opening into a redemptive search for Afro-South Asian interracial solidarities. Hundle explores the aftermaths and continuous nature of the expulsion event, examining its effects and affects; the images, representations, and differentiated experiences and memories of the event; and the tense and ambivalent practices of citizenship, sovereignty, and governance that have emerged in the decades following the expulsion. She examines Afro-Asian entanglements in what she describes as transcontinental Uganda through the lenses of race, ethnicity, class, caste, religion, gender, and sexuality. Throughout, Hundle argues for stronger attention to knowledge production on global Afro-South Asian connections and the continued dynamics of community, citizenship, and identity on the African Continent as central to envisioning Black African self-determinism, racial reconciliation, and interracial pluralisms during shifting imperial, postcolonial, nationalist, and geopolitical times.

Editorial Reviews
“Privatization and commercialization of higher education, especially in professional and technical education, is a rampant phenomenon in the post-reform (1991) phase in India. The southern States of Andhra Pradesh (pre-bifurcation), Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, and the western State of Maharashtra have been leading these reform initiatives. This is one of the first books that uncovers the ramifications of this under-researched area in comparative perspective. This is a must-read book for policymakers and researchers.”
—Sukhadeo Thorat, Former Chairman, University Grants Commission, New Delhi
