This paper traces the increasing gendered nature of nationalism, nation building and citizenship in South Asia and how the role of women have become central in strict and exclusionist state regulations and policies around migration and citizenship. What began in the colonial period as a foisted process of classification and categorisation has been transformed in the post-colonial period into a locally constructed process of reaffirmation of their own structures of ethnicity, culture and economic development in which women are ‘the guardians’ of the natio...

Research paper thumbnail of SOME INITIAL VIEWS ON INDIAN POLICIES AND CITIZENSHIP

Mobility has been a characteristic of the present territories of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. ... more Mobility has been a characteristic of the present territories of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. During the colonial period, migration was influenced initially by the presence of European economic interests and the effect of seafaring.
In relation to the concept of citizen, the history of Colonial India provides unique case studies. Additional to the impact of the presence of British officials in the Indian territory (as it was known before partition), there were cases related to settlements of French nationals in locations such as Pondicherry, which brought new elements to the effects of intermarriage and the birth of new citizenships in the British colonies.
This is an initial review of citizenship concepts in India.

This island located in the Caribbean Sea, became a colony of the Spanish Empire and as a consequence of this event there was a transformation of its social and political system, originally based on tribal traditions and customs. As an effect of colonization, it became a destination of mainly Spanish immigrants; however other groups would be of particular importance in the racial configuration of the inhabitants of Cuba, such as immigrants coming from Asia, specifically from China.
During the period of post-independence, the issue of being strategically located- the island is situated next to the United States- constituted a factor of influence when taking decisions on immigration policies, a fact that continues to influence its legal and political history up to date. Migration is a key issue which has come under strict surveillance and has had an impact on the construction of the concepts of nationality and citizenship. Intermarriage can be described as a social phenomenon which involves more Cuban women than Cuban men. Topics such as the one related to “sex tourism” are also being highlighted as a consequence of this situation.
This paper was written around 201I and attempted to explore the legal, social and economic effects of the immigration and emigration flows under the political changes introduced by the Cuban Revolution from a gender perspective. It is my intention to present it as a background to the present era of changes between USA and Cuba and as a humble contribution to new research and reflections currently being conducted based on the recent political changes.

This paper traces the increasing gendered nature of nationalism, nation building and citizenship in South Asia and how the role of women have become central in strict and exclusionist state regulations and policies around migration and citizenship. What began in the colonial period as a foisted process of classification and categorisation has been transformed in the post-colonial period into a locally constructed process of reaffirmation of their own structures of ethnicity, culture and economic development in which women are 'the guardians' of the nation. The paper argues that the problems raised by 'inter-cultural, inter-religious, multilingual and inter-racial marriages' or 'mixed marriages' not only reveal the intricacies and complexities of nation-building processes in the region, but also raise issues concerning the goal of 'unity in diversity', as regulations regarding intermarriage may affect basic human rights of the nationals of a country. It stresses that boundaries and constraints are not only imposed by the state, but informally by the people through traditions and attitudes, which views intermarriage as a form of cultural subversion, yet whose influences are being threatened by Westernisation, particularly among the youth.
