This book proposes a new way of conceptualising diaspora by examining how diasporas do translation and decolonisation. It provides conceptual tools for investigating diasporas and their interventions and considers diaspora as 'the global south in the global north', as well as providing a case study of the Kurdish diaspora in Europe.
This innovative study engages critically with existing conceptualisations of diaspora, arguing that if diaspora is to have analytical purchase, it should illuminate a specific angle of migration or migrancy.
To reveal the much-needed transformative potential of the concept, the book looks specifically at how diasporas undertake translation and decolonisation. While drawing on various examples, it provides a detailed empirical study of the Kurdish diaspora in Europe and unpacks how Kurds carry out ethno-political translations of their struggle, including undoing colonisation, foreignisation and domestication in their engagements with the global north.
