摘要 本文介绍了 1834 年至 1918 年间在契约或政府资助下移民到西印度群岛的统计数据摘要。资料来源显示出一些差异，但足够一致，可以为每个引入的种族群体构建一个系列。构建这些系列所涉及的大多数问题都集中在必须利用各种来源这一事实上。每个日历年或每个季节的东印度人、葡萄牙人、中国人、欧洲人和其他人进入几个西印度殖民地的移民数据已编制完毕，但为了节省篇幅，此处以摘要形式列出。对于非洲移民，可以提供其原籍国。唯一参与有影响的回归运动的移民群体是东印度人。
Abstract This paper presents summary statistics of immigration into the West Indies, under indenture or government sponsorship, during the period 1834-1918. The sources reveal a few discrepancies, but are sufficiently consistent to permit the construction of a series for each of the ethnic groups introduced. Most of the problems involved in constructing these series centre around the fact that a variety of sources have to be utilised. Immigration figures of East Indians, Portuguese, Chinese, Europeans and others into the several West Indian colonies have been prepared for each calendar year or season, but to conserve space are presented here in summary form. In the case of African immigration it is possible to give their country of origin. The only group of immigrants who were involved in return movements of any consequence are the East Indians.
