Автор:Stephane Dufoix Год: 2008 Издание:University of California Press Страниц: 160 ISBN: 0520253604 Coined in the third century B.C., the term diaspora has evolved into a buzzword used to describe the migrations of groups as diverse as ethnic populations, religious communities, and even engineers working abroad. This concise book provides a critical intoduction to the concept of diaspora, bringing a fresh, synthetic perspective to virtually all aspects of this topic. Stephane Dufoix incorporates a wealth of case studies--about the Jewish, Armenian, African, Chinese, Greek, and Indian experiences-- to ilustrate key concepts, give a clear overview on current thinking, and reassess the value of the term for us today.
