Description

Revisiting the study of South Asians in Britain and beyond, this book looks at the concept of diaspora by probing the ways in which the South Asian diaspora could be re-conceptualised as comprising communities whose identity, on both individual and collective levels, is grounded in a sense of rooted and connected locations that do not necessarily privilege the homeland.
