Global Diasporas in the Age of High Imperialism Hardback
Edited by Ulrike Kirchberger, Steven Ivings
Hardback
Description
This book sheds new light on the role global migrant communities played in the context of imperial expansion.
It offers two systematic chapters and seven case studies which deal with the Japanese, German, African, Chinese and Khoja diasporas.
By comparing different diasporic formations with each other and in their relationships to colonial imperialism, the volume challenges the paradigm that imperialist ideologies always originated in the European mother countries of imperial expansion and highlights the multi-directionality of the imperial discourse which crossed diasporas, empires and colour lines.
The volume seeks to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the dynamics of global community formation in the context of imperial expansion.
