Central Asia and the Caucasus : Transnationalism and Diaspora, Paperback / softback Book

Central Asia and the Caucasus : Transnationalism and Diaspora Paperback / softback

Edited by Touraj Atabaki, Sanjyot Mehendale

Part of the Routledge Research in Transnationalism series

Paperback / softback

Description

Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, a number of linkages have been established between newly independent Central Asian states, or populations within them, and diaspora ethnic groups.

This book explores the roles that diaspora communities play in the recent and ongoing emergence of national identities in Central Asia and the Caucasus.

The loyalties of these communities are divided between their countries of residence and those states that serve as homeland of their particular ethno-cultural nation, and are further complicated by connections with contested transnational notions of common cultures and 'peoples'.

Written by highly respected experts in the field, the book addresses issues such as nationalism, conflict, population movement, global civil society, Muslim communities in China and relations between the new nation-states and Russia. This innovative book will interest students and researchers of transnationalism and Central Asian studies.
