With contributions from some of Canada's leading historians,
political scientists, geographers, anthropologists, and
sociologists, this collection examines the transnational practices
and identities of immigrant and ethnic communities in Canada. It
looks at why members of these groups maintain ties with their
homelands -- whether real or imagined -- and how those connections
shape individual identities and community organizations. How does
transnationalism establish or transform geographical, social, and
ideological borders? Do homeland ties affect what it means to be
"Canadian"? Do they reflect Canada's commitment to
multiculturalism? Through analysis of the complex forces driving
transnationalism, this comprehensive study focuses attention on an
important, and arguably growing, dimension of Canadian social life.
This is the first collection in Canada to provide a comprehensive
and interdisciplinary examination of transnationalism. It will
appeal to scholars and students interested in issues of
immigration, multiculturalism, ethnicity, and settlement.
