The geographical diversity of the Indian diaspora has been shaped
against the backdrop of the historical forces of colonialism,
nationalism and neoliberal globalization. In each of these global
moments, the demand for Indian workers has created the multiple
global pathways of the Indian diasporas. The Routledge Handbook of
the Indian Diaspora introduces readers to the contexts and
histories that constitute the Indian diaspora. It brings together
scholars from different parts of the globe, representing various
disciplines, and covers extensive spatial and temporal terrain.
Contributors draw from a variety of archives and intellectual
perspectives in order to map the narratives of the Indian diaspora.
The topics covered range from the history of diasporic communities,
activism, identity, gender, politics, labour, policy, violence,
performance, literature and branding. The handbook analyses a wide
array of issues and debates and is organised in six parts: *
Histories and trajectories * Diaspora and infrastructures *
Cultural dynamics * Representation and identity * Politics of
belonging * Networked subjectivities and transnationalism.
Providing a comprehensive analysis of the diverse social, cultural
and economic contexts that frame diasporic practices, this key
reference work will reinvigorate discussions about the Indian
diaspora, its global presence and trajectories. It will be an
invaluable resource for academics, researchers and students
interested in studying South Asia in general and the Indian
diaspora in particular.
