Storm surges associated with typhoons historically make sea-to-land crossings. There is an annual average of nineteen tropical cyclones occurring in the Philippine’s area of responsibility, of which an average of nine cross the country. There are few areas of the archipelago that have not been affected by storm surges. This paper investigates the crucial role and impacts of this natural hazard in certain areas of the Philippines that have been exposed to typhoons and storm surges across the centuries. The paper discusses the character of the storm surge, highlights some of the worst storm surge catastrophes that have occurred outside the Philippines, and then focuses on three storm surge events in the Visayan Islands of Samar and Leyte. On October 12, 1897, November 24-26, 1912, and November 3-11, 2013, the exposed coastal towns of Hernani and Guiuan on Samar and Tacloban on Leyte were destroyed by storm surges. The recurrent damage and loss of life caused by storm surges and cyclonic storms has increased in these three places as the complex cascade chain of the hazard changed through time, shifting from thousands to millions of people displaced and their livelihoods and communities destroyed on three occasions between October 1897 and November 2013. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":255463,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Indian Ocean World Studies","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116952800","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It shows that the horizontal mobility of workers in early twentieth-century Calcutta was a result of a pervasiveness of casual work, both among the ‘unskilled’ and the skilled. Skill levels and occupations were crucial in defining the boundaries of not one, as is frequently posited, but several labour pools. It was in this form that the reserve army of labour was ever-present in the city, which gave workers networks beyond one workplace, one neighborhood and frequently, even one industry. The special role of segments of skilled workers has rarely been studied in relation to labour militancy and politics. The article sustains an emphasis on the role of industrial centres, such as the docklands, through which a high degree of interconnectedness across industrial processes in terms of shared occupations and skills across several industries and neighborhoods, can be excavated and mapped onto episodes of labour militancy. The neighbourhood, the trade unions, and nationalist events have all hitherto been studied to understand the shaping of workers’ protest. This article, by contrast, focuses on other crucial elements: the workplace and the industrial processes, which tied workers together in concrete, everyday, and proximate relationships. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":255463,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Indian Ocean World Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126994198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I interrogate what constitutes female kinship, coastal identity, cultural heritage, and the ties between these phenomena through a comparative analysis of the two texts. I assess how both works express kinship between coastal women and the ways in which their Indian Ocean and local cultural identities become embodied forms of knowledge. I then explore the differing ways that women in ‘Waa Guuriheeynnaa’ and A Dhow is Crossing the Sea use material culture as an act of female community making. I argue that in both literary works, women’s bodies carry cultural meaning. However, while in ‘Waa Guuriheeynnaa,’ it is through women’s bodies that Banaadiri Indian Ocean culture is expressed, affirmed, and continued, in A Dhow is Crossing the Sea, coastal women’s bodies attest to a more uneven and contested Indian Ocean and diasporic heritage that registers historical losses as well as their everyday lived realities. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":255463,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Indian Ocean World Studies","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130537180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I propose that for the southwest Indian Ocean that scholars follow Chimamanda Adichie’s directive to critique ‘single stories’ by considering locally produced, embodied, sensorial relations of indigenous peoples and local communities (IPLCs) to the sea and coasts, as well as the role that such relations might play in shaping health. I add that such relations cultivate a ‘blue’ consciousness and a nascent ‘blue’ rights – borne of symbioses between humans and ocean. I add that these advance a holistic and integrated human and ocean health. The discussion makes the case for the re-placement of globalized paradigms of climate change and for the inclusion of locally generated narratives of human relations with the sea. I posit that a more careful analysis of coastal and oceanic (intangible cultural) heritages can reveal transmaterial, interspecies relations with the sea. Drawing on anthropological research in the Southwest Indian Ocean World (SWIOW) and then in coastal South Africa, I argue that such narratives can herald not only a notion of global blue rights, they can also herald, from the ‘periphery’, a blue era where there is deeper consideration of sustainable human relations with the sea. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":255463,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Indian Ocean World Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129118879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
