The large-scale migration of Asian peoples has been a major
force of historical change in the twentieth century. This volume
examines some of the significant flows of migrants within and
beyond Asia. Some of the chapters are broad canvasses describing
world-wide diaspora: for example, the Parsis or Chinese abroad.
Others deal with more localized movements such as Muslims from
India to Pakistan. The book focuses on migration as a long-term
process and experience, often spanning several generations and
building on established traditions of movement. Its approach is
multidisciplinary, drawing on the skills of sociologists,
anthropologists, historians, comparative theologians, geographers
and specialists in international relations. It is offered both as
academic study and to give non-specialists insight into the
processes that now make up our diverse societies.
