Abstract

An exploration of the culinary legacy left by colonialism in India to demonstrate how they met and negotiated with each other to create what is now modern Indian gastronomy. Those were its pre-colonial roots in Indian cooking, the defining part of which developed under the decisive influence of the Portuguese, British, French, and Dutch colonial powers, introducing new ingredients and techniques along with an entirely new manner of consumption. Through thematic sections: ingredient exchange, hybridized cuisines, and socio-political implications of these, the chapter makes an argument that the culinary fusions in India are not just a gastronomical outcome, but a narrative of adaptation, resistance, and identity building. Much of the contemporary matters now under consideration, including cultural appropriation, culinary diplomacy, and the balance between authenticity and innovation in a globalizing food economy. This chapter argues that India's culinary terrain is a living archive of colonial encounters and calls for a critical yet celebratory mode of reckoning with food heritage in post-colonial contexts.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to examine the influence of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on long-term employee productivity in the luxury hospitality industry, with particular focus on organizational trust, psychological safety, and employee engagement as key determinants of workforce stability.Design/Methodology/Approach – The study adopts a conceptual and analytical approach by integrating established theoretical frameworks, including Self-Determination Theory, Kahn’s Engagement Model, and Job Demands-Resources Model. These models are used to evaluate how different motivational drivers shape employee engagement, performance, and retention in high-pressure hotel environments.Findings – The findings indicate that intrinsic motivation—such as autonomy, job satisfaction, and career development—has a stronger and more sustainable impact on long-term employee engagement and productivity. In contrast, extrinsic motivation, including salary, incentives, and promotions, tends to produce short-term performance improvements. The study also highlights the critical role of leadership, organizational trust, and open communication in fostering psychological safety, which enhances employee commitment and encourages service innovation. Cultural and organizational contexts are found to further influence motivational dynamics.Originality/Value – This study contributes to hospitality management literature by offering a comprehensive synthesis of motivation theories within the luxury hotel context. It provides practical recommendations for balancing financial and non-financial rewards, supporting human resource strategies aimed at reducing turnover, enhancing service quality, and strengthening long-term organizational performance.
