Nursing and Empire: Gendered Labor and Migration from India to the United States
Sujani Reddy
In this rich interdisciplinary study, Sujani Reddy examines the consequential lives of Indian nurses whose careers have unfolded in the contexts of empire, migration, familial relations, race, and gender. As Reddy shows, the nursing profession developed in India against a complex backdrop of British and US imperialism.
Commendation Quotes: In this beautifully written and brilliantly argued book, Sujani Reddy demonstrates the urgency of understanding Indian nurse migration to the United States in relation to the many reconfigurations of 'Anglo-American capitalist imperialism' over two centuries. This is an indispensable and groundbreaking contribution to the history of women and labor migration, and it sets a new standard for the global study of imperialism, capitalism, and race.--Jennifer Guglielmo, author of "Living the Revolution" Commendation Quotes: Sujani Reddy neatly traces the development of modern racialized nursing practices by going beyond simply analyzing migration to examining the historical emergence of nursing in India and the United States. "Nursing and Empire" explores labor markets, intimate industries, and gender with a writing style that is simultaneously deeply analytical and richly descriptive. An absolutely exciting and one-of-a-kind book.--Sharmila Rudrappa, University of Texas at Austin Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.
