This book explores the evolving concept of diaspora in the 21st century, moving beyond traditional understandings of scattering and alienation to introduce the idea of ‘post-diaspora’. Through this new framework, it highlights how established migrant communities, particularly the Indian diaspora, become influential, organised, and contribute significantly to both their homelands and host countries. Drawing on Indian migrants, it discusses how advancements in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and the presence of established diasporic networks create a ‘home away from home’ for new migrants, fostering re-rooting and multiple belongings rather than just dislocation. The volume also addresses the complexities of identity within these communities, including the experiences of minority groups and the shift from a desire to ‘return’ to an emphasis on ‘engagement’ with the homeland. With contributions from major scholars in the field, the volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of migration and diaspora studies, development studies and South Asian studies.

This interdisciplinary volume examines the transnational Odia-speaking community from the Indian state of Odisha, exploring their rich cultural heritage, identity formation, and global presence across multiple disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. As the first comprehensive academic treatment dedicated to the Odia diaspora, this edited collection addresses a significant gap in South Asian diaspora scholarship. The book provides interdisciplinary perspectives on Odia diaspora history, culture, literature, politics, and contemporary issues through contributions from leading scholars in India and internationally. Key themes include historical migration patterns from ancient maritime traditions to contemporary economic migration, cultural continuity and change in transnational contexts, gender dynamics and women's experiences, digital diasporas and transnational encounters, economic contributions and remittances, and the role of festivals and cultural practices in maintaining community identity. The volume addresses the community's significant yet understudied presence in countries including the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, and the UAE. This essential resource serves researchers, postgraduate students, and academics in diaspora studies, South Asian studies, cultural anthropology, migration studies, sociology, area studies, history, media studies, colonial history, labor studies, postcolonial studies, gender studies, and interdisciplinary studies.
