The first anthropological account of the Irish diaspora in Europe
in the 21st century, this book provides a culture-centric
examination of the Irish diaspora. Focusing less on an abstract or
technical definition of Irish self-identification, the author
allows members of this group to speak through vignettes and
interview excerpts, providing an anthropological lens that allows
the reader to enter a frame of self-reference. This book therefore
provides architecture to understand how diasporic communities might
understand their own identities in a new way and how they might
reconsider the role played by mobility in changing expressions of
identity. Providing firsthand, experiential and narrative insight
into the Irish diaspora in Europe, this volume promises to
contribute an anthropological perspective to historical accounts of
the Irish overseas, theoretical works in Irish studies, and
sociological examinations of Irish identity and diaspora.
