Home and exile have become key discussions in discourses of
globalization, cosmopolitanism, postcolonialism, transnationalism,
identity, and multiculturalism. These discourses can be expected to
flourish in the future as an increasing number of multicultural
scholars struggle with various kinds of displacements and the
meaning of home that is thereby instantiated anew as we experience
living in between cultures. This book sits in the intersection
between cultural studies and performance studies. It seeks to break
theoretical and empirical ground by reframing understandings of
home and exile. Popular notions of exile forwarded by transnational
and postcolonial scholars position home as a place of return and
longing. While we believe that there are many truths in this
position, we performatively seek emergent forms of displacement
that are demanding new frameworks with which to enact meanings of
home and exile.
