This volume offers a profoundly new interpretation of the impact of
modern diasporas on democracy, challenging the orthodox
understanding that ties these two concepts to a bounded form of
territory. Considering democracy and diaspora through a
deterritorialised lens, it takes the post-Euromaidan Ukraine as a
central case study to show how modern diasporas are actively
involved in shaping democracy from a distance, and through their
political activity are becoming increasingly democratised
themselves. An examination of how power-sharing democracies
function beyond the territorial state, Democracy, Diaspora,
Territory: Europe and Cross-Border Politics compels us to reassess
what we mean by democracy and diaspora today, and why we need to
focus on the deterritorialised dimensions of these phenomena if we
are to adequately address the crises confronting numerous
democracies. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology and
politics with interests in migration and diaspora, political
theory, citizenship and democracy.
