Exploring the dispersion of populations and cultures across many
geographic regions and spheres, diaspora studies has emerged as a
vibrant area of research amid rapidly increasing transnationalism
and globalization. "Theorizing Diaspora: A Reader" presents in a
single volume the most influential and critically well-received
essays that have shaped the trajectory of diaspora studies and
contemporary theorizations of diaspora as a specific terrain
within, and beyond, postcolonial studies.
The book offers classic statements that have defined the field
by such scholars as Appadurai, Gilroy, Radhakrishnan, and Hall.
Essays tackle a number of subjects and diasporic configurations
across the globe: Chinese, Black African, Jewish, South Asian,
Latin American, and Caribbean.
Marking multinational and interdisciplinary theorizations of
diaspora, and reflecting disciplinary modalities and methodologies
of the humanities and social sciences, "Theorizing Diaspora" is a
central resource for understanding diaspora as an emergent and
contested theoretical space.
