Rezensionen

"This rich, capacious collection of twenty-five essays accommodates a variety of important perspectives on South Asia's culture of migration, the politics and economics of mobility, and the management of migration. Importantly, immobility is also factored into the analysis. Highly recommended."

--Khachig Tölölyan, Professor of English, Wesleyan University, USA and Founding Editor, Diaspora: A Journal of Transnational Studies

"This Handbook draws on a global collection of scholars to illuminate the extent and diversity of the South Asian global diaspora, from more familiar stories of migration to the Gulf to less documented migrations of Tibet, Nepal and Assam. Interdisciplinary, historically and empirically grounded and theoretically diverse, this volume offers an indispensable guide for scholars and students alike."

--Becky Taylor, Professor of Modern History, University of East Anglia, UK

"This Handbook is an invaluable resource. It will be essential for anyone interested in learning about the diversity and complexity of mobile South Asians who have created mixed communities in many countries in the twentieth century. Its authors represent a wide range of locations and orientations, providing a good sense of the perspective diversity that animates research, policies, and popular media concerning migration."

--David Ludden, Professor of History, New York University, USA

"This is an impressive and comprehensive collection of essays that highlights the scope and scale of transnational migrations within South Asia and from South Asia across the world. Bringing together historical and contemporary case studies in an interdisciplinary perspective, this volume is rare in its wide-ranging collective look at both the better known emigrations out of India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, and making visible the less-known migration histories of Nepal, Tibet, and Sri Lanka."

--Sana Aiyar, Professor of History, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA
