This collection of papers discusses the impact of diasporas on the
articulations and practices of legal, political, cultural and
social citizenship in their country of origin. While the majority
of current citizenship debates focus on the challenges and
directions in which diasporic and migrant communities impact on the
citizenship regime in their country of settlement, the papers in
this volume approach the study of citizenship from the perspective
of the link between the sending state and its diasporic communities
abroad. The papers discuss the role of language, religion, kinship,
and other ethnic markers in diaspora politics and trace their
implications for the articulations and practices of citizenship.
Through discussing cases across political and geographical
spectrums, and from different historical epochs the book broadens
and enriches the debate on citizenship by demonstrating important
ways in which diasporas impact on the delineation of citizenship
regimes and the politics of national identity in their homeland.
This links to the continued use of language as an ethnic marker,
but also one which may be learned, allowing a certain degree of
choice and shifting affiliations amongst putative members of a
diaspora. This book was published as a special issue of Nationalism
and Ethnic Politics.
