RICHARDSON, Noelle. Managing Diversity in the Eighteenth-Century Estado da Índia. e-JPH [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.1, pp.40-66. Epub 30-Jun-2022. ISSN 1645-6432. https://doi.org/10.26300/7b3w-3809.
This article analyzes the management of diversity in the Portuguese Estado da Índia over the course of the eighteenth century. It demonstrates how intolerance towards Hindu religious beliefs and practices persisted whilst analyzing the shift towards a more pragmatic tolerance during the period in question. In doing so, it reveals the agency and role of Hindu subjects in driving this complex process of change. Finally, the article examines how the management of diversity by the Portuguese imperial polity was also characterized by the necessary accommodation of Hindu ‘uses and customs’ through the construction of a plural legal order.
