Diaspora as Translation and Decolonisation Hardback
by Ipek Demir
Part of the Theory for a Global Age series
Hardback
Description
This innovative study engages critically with existing conceptualisations of diaspora, arguing that if diaspora is to have analytical purchase, it should illuminate a specific angle of migration or migrancy.
To reveal the much-needed transformative potential of the concept, the book looks specifically at how diasporas undertake translation and decolonisation.
It offers various conceptual tools for investigating diaspora, with a specific focus on diasporas in the Global North and a detailed empirical study of the Kurdish diaspora in Europe.
The book also considers the backlash diasporas of colour have faced in the Global North. -- .
