Beskrivning
Globalization and transnational migration are key features of the twenty-first century. This book examines how globalization—characterized by interconnected economies, rapid advancements in communication technologies, and increased cultural exchange—has facilitated the movement of people from India across international borders. It also examines how the identity of Indians in the diaspora is negotiated through a fluid process of blending heritage with the culture of the host country, influenced by technology, ethnic associations and organizations, and at the same time how regional, religious, and caste identities are shaped and reshaped through a dynamic process of adaptation, assertion, and negotiation within the diaspora.This book will appeal to a diverse audience, including students, researchers, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the dynamics of the Indian diaspora, transnational migration, and the interplay of culture, religion, and ethnicity in shaping diasporic experiences. Covering broad subject areas such as migration studies, cultural anthropology, sociology, and religious studies, this book provides valuable insights into the complexities of identity formation and cultural adaptation in a globalized world.
