I researched and wrote this book with support from the SSRC-Macarthur Program in International Peace and Secu- rity, the Mellon Foundation, the Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation, and the Rockefeller Foundation. I am grateful for permission to use the resources of numerous libraries and archives: India Office Library, London; London Missionary Society archive, SOAS, London; Tamilnadu Archives, Chennai; Tamilnadu Department of Fisheries, Chennai; International Collective in Sup- port of Fishworkers, Chennai; Kanyakumari District Department of Fisheries, Nagercoil; Kottar Bishop’s House, Nagercoil; Kanyakumari District Collector- .d evre ate, Nagercoil; Revenue Divisional Office, Thuckulay; Center for Development ser sth Studies, Trivandrum; Programme for Community Organization, Trivandrum; gir llA South Indian Federation of Fishermen Societies, Trivandrum; Kerala State Ar- .sse chive, Trivandrum; National Fishworkers Forum, Trivandrum. rP This book benefited from the support and guidance of Richard G. Fox, ytisre Orin Starn, David Gilmartin, Katherine Ewing, and Irene Silverblatt. Orin vinU and David have continued to be invaluable readers and mentors. Over the d rofn years, I have also added other mentors to the list, most importantly K. Sivara- a tS .9 makrishnan and Mahesh Rangarajan, whose enthusiastic support and sug- 0 02 gestions have strengthened the manuscript considerably. © thg South Indian fisheries are a particularly fertile political arena, in part be- irypo cause of the tireless activism of people such as Nalini Nayak, John Kurien, C Fathers Thomas Kocherry, Arulanandam, Pierre Gillet, James Tombeur, and ix Subramanian, Ajantha.
