This edited collection breaks new ground within the field of
postcolonial diaspora studies, moving beyond the predominantly
Anglophone bias of much existing scholarship by investigating
comparative links between a range of Anglophone, Francophone,
Hispanic and Neerlandophone cultural contexts. Ranging across the
disciplines of history, sociology, literary analysis, cultural
studies and the visual arts, the collection examines both the
contributions and limitations of existing postcolonial diaspora
scholarship, as well as developing new cross-disciplinary
theoretical paradigms. Exploring a variety of geographical
locations including Europe, the Americas, the Pacific and the
Middle East, the collection is divided into three main sections:
'Discovering Europe' (with essays by John McLeod, Elleke Boehmer
and Frances Gouda, and Siobhan Shilton); 'Nostalgia and the Longing
for Home' (featuring Patrick Williams, Patria Roman-Velasquez and
Janet Wilson); and 'Comparative Diasporic Contexts' (with
contributions from Celia Britton, Mohit Prasad and Bill Marshall),
concluding with a postscript by Elizabeth Ezra and Terry Rowden.
