This book compares the postcolonial populations of Britain and France, examining the ways in which they are redefining citizenship. Bearing in mind the different histories and political systems of each country, it considers questions of national identity, values, the place of religion, secularism and public spaces - all integral to determining what makes a country a true nation. Recent security threats have made the debate around minorities and assimilation all the more pressing, and this book delves deep into the issues of feminism, Islam and group identities. It will be of interest to students and scholars of race, religion and migration studies. -- .
This book offers an in-depth look at the ways in which technology,
travel, and globalization have altered traditional patterns of
immigration for South Asians who live and work in the United
States, and explains how their popular cultural practices and
aesthetic desires are fulfilled. They are presented as the
twenty-first century's "new cosmopolitans": flexible enough to
adjust to globalization's economic, political, and cultural
imperatives. They are thus uniquely adaptable to the mainstream
cultures of the United States, but also vulnerable in a period when
nationalism and security have become tools to maintain traditional
power relations in a changing world.
