In migration studies, the nexus between migration and development
in the global South has been meticulously debated. However, a
unanimous resolution to this debate has not been found, due to the
ever-changing nature of international migration. This book advances
knowledge on the global debate on the migration-development
relationship by documenting experiences in a number of countries in
South Asia. Drawing on the experiences of global South Asians, this
volume documents the impact of migration on the social, economic,
and political fields in the broader context of development. It also
presents a regional experience by looking into the
migration-development nexus in the context of South Asia, and
analyses the role South Asian migrants and diaspora communities
play in the South Asian society. Contributions from a variety of
disciplinary backgrounds, including sociology, anthropology,
political science, international relations and economics, document
the development implications of South Asian migration. Broad in
scope in terms of contents, timeline of migration, and geographical
coverage, the book presents empirically-based case studies
involving India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Nepal and
their emigrants living and working in different parts of the world.
Going beyond reporting the impacts of migration on economic
development by highlighting the implications of 'social
development' on society, this book provides a fascinating
contribution to the fields of Asian Development, Migration Studies
and South Asian Studies.
