From Migrant to Citizen to Refugee: a Global History of the 1972 Ugandan Asian Expulsion
REFNo: SS2625ES

I will assess the impact of a connected, sovereign Afro-Asian world on the international order and attendant structures. Within the long-term aim to understand citizenship, diaspora, and immigration my immediate focus is the 1972 Ugandan Asian Expulsion. From Migrant to Citizen to Refugee traces how a transformation of citizenship across the British Empire took place, with the expulsion of the Ugandan Asians by Idi Amin in 1972 and their resettlement in Britain, Canada, and India following the decolonisation of East Africa. It emphasises this transformation of citizenship as part of a worldwide process of decolonisation.

The project also explores how these changes to citizenship also changed UN-led practices. I explore how humanitarian assistance was provided, with the international community becoming complicit in the social reconfigurations enacted by postcolonial states. Deemed ‘refugees’ in some cases and ‘citizens’ in places like India, Canada and the UK, Uganda’s Asians’ citizenship in other areas of the former British Empire became fluid in the discourse of immigration and belonging in the 1970s as a result of postcolonial citizenship itself being transformed.
