From a comparative perspective, using examples from South Asian communities in Suriname, Mauritius, East Africa, the UK, Canada and the Netherlands, this collection presents new and controversial insights into the concept of diaspora, raising the question about the limits of its effectiveness as an intellectual concept.[-][-]A cross-disciplinary overview of the new historical and anthropological research on South Asian migrants worldwide This title is available in the OAPEN Library - http://www.oapen.org.
