Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the emancipatory potential and pitfalls of digital platforms and how well or how poorly they reflect intra-communal diversities within South Asian diasporic communities. It will be of interest to South Asian diaspora, culture and ethnicity, race, and the politics of resistance and counter-hegemonic mobilizations.
