New Diasporas examines the phenomenon of widespread global
migration in the last quarter of the twentieth century. This
authoritative work develops the theoretical concept of diaspora and
investigates the formation and reformation of diasporic groups in
relation to issues of socio-economic development, truman rights,
and the nation-state.
Focusing on ten migration crises in Africa, the Middle East,
Asia, Europe, and Central America, the author charts the formation
of these new transnational communities and analyzes their social,
economic and political fall-out. In addition, considerable
discussion is given to the factors that are facilitating and
accelerating the growth of these movements; in particular, the
disintegration and reconstitution of nation-states. The author
examines the future for these new diasporas, questioning their
predicted impact on the twenty-first century's political economy.
New Diasporas will prove an essential and lively guide for students
of ethnicity, migration, political science, international
relations, and population geography.
