Oxford in Pakistan Readings in Sociology and Social Anthropology - Pakistani Diasporas: Culture, Conflict, and Change

Informationen zum Autor Dr Virinder S. Kalra is an associate professor of Sociology at the University of Manchester. He has written extensively on the South Asian diaspora and his doctoral work focused on a group of Kashmiris who had migrated to the U.K. He was co-editor of the book A Postcolonial People: South Asians in Britain Klappentext When compared to studies of the Indian diaspora, or even in the wider framework of diaspora studies, there is relatively meagre research about the Pakistani diaspora. This collection is the first to bring together the extant literature and provide both a historical and contemporary set of accounts. It is primarily about the processes associated with migration and settlement as seen from the receiving end.
