D. Pasura

African Transnational Diasporas (eBook, PDF)

Fractured Communities and Plural Identities of Zimbabweans in Britain

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Pasura proposes a framework for understanding African diasporas as core, epistemic, dormant and silent diasporas. The book explores the origin, formation and performance of the Zimbabwean transnational diaspora in Britain and examines how the diaspora is constituted in the hostland and how it maintains connections with the homeland.
