This book delves into the experiences of South Asia’s diaspora―originating from countries such as India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, the Maldives, and Afghanistan―which constitutes one of the world’s largest and most globally dispersed communities. Over recent decades, millions of South Asians have migrated to regions such as the UK, North America, Southeast Asia, Africa, and increasingly the Middle East. Their children and grandchildren, forming the second generation, have grown up in these new societies, navigating education and entering the workforce. Despite being born and raised abroad, many still grapple with challenges of belonging, identity negotiation, and occasional discrimination, often being perceived as outsiders.
This book is essential resource for students, scholars, and researchers in migration studies, sociology, anthropology, and cultural studies. It explores broad subject areas such as transnationalism, acculturation, cultural hybridity, racism, and diaspora tourism, offering insights into the mental health concerns, resettlement challenges, and adjustment outcomes faced by this community. By focusing on South Asians as a transnational group, the book provides a nuanced perspective on the interplay between cultural heritage and contemporary global realities, inspiring further research and dialogue in the field.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of South Asian Diaspora.
