About the Book :- The sun never sets on Indian Diaspora. This Diaspora has emerged as one of the leading and largest Diaspora of the world. It has grown from a scattered, marginalised self containing isolated overseas community to assume leadership of digital and literary world. From imaginary and weak realtionship with India, it has emerged into a web relationship of People of Indian Origin spread all over the world with the country of origin working as a vibrant hub. It is now aggresively supported bya proactive policy of mother country. Though it is relatively nascent, but this confident, mobilized and networked Diaspora has acquried a global identity. This book attempt s to capture the new emerging face of Indian Diaspora all over the world. It has tried to understand and analyze Indian Diaspora to have insights into its distinct civilisational identity.

Indians have migrated to America in recognizable numbers since at least the turn of the 19th century and have established large and thriving communities in many major cities, especially after the Hart-Cellar Act of 1965. Members of these communities have regularly engaged with news from and about India in order to stay connected with some notion of "home." While early generations relied on a relatively sparse media ecology shaped particularly by legacy ethnic media (print, radio, video) and interpersonal networks, the contemporary Indian diaspora also have at their disposal digital media platforms that have made it easier and faster than ever before to stay engaged with news from and about India. Guided by Arjun Appadurai's concepts of hard and soft cultural forms and his framework of global cultural flows, particularly the mediascape and ethnoscape, my dissertation focuses on members of the Indian community in Chicago, one of the nation's largest, to explore how, why and with what consequences they engage with news for and about India. Through an analysis of in-depth interviews with members of the diverse Indian community in the Greater Chicago area, I describe and interpret the news consumption habits of three interconnected groups that constitute the Indian diaspora: 1) those who were born in India and relocated to Chicago, 2) Second-generation Indian Americans who were born in the United States, and 3) those who were born outside of India or the U.S. but whose heritage can be traced to India. My research suggests that the while news- and media-consuming members of the Indian diaspora in Chicago often understand India as a combination of a place and an idea, the home-host structure prevalent in traditional diaspora studies is not especially salient for this group today. Instead, news and non-news media products appear to serve both cultural anchors and buoys that guide ethnic identity formation and maintenance in ways that elide or even elude the "home" versus "host" comparison

This book provides a picture of a globalized Malaysia where its conventionally-conceived multi-ethnic composition of Malays, Chinese, Indians and Others rub shoulders with or interact more intimately on a daily basis with transnational ethnoscapes of migrant workers, asylum seekers, international students, and foreign spouses. It asks how, as Malaysians become wedded to their citizenship, they extend the same awareness of rights and claims to non-citizens such as African international students, the Indonesian maids who look after their children, and the Chins and stateless Rohingyas who populate the landscape as refugees and undocumented workers. What are the possibilities of forming cosmopolitan solidarities with non-Malaysians? And what are the newcomers’ strategies for place-making and belonging? And to bring the discussions of citizenship in Malaysia into relief, it is also asked how Malaysians abroad seek to enact and make meaningful their Malaysian citizenship. A diversity of experiences shapes the narratives in the chapters: of racialization, rejection, boundary-making and exclusivity, resilience and adaptation. This book was published as a special issue of Citizenship Studies.

The first introduction to the field of Diaspora criticism that serves both as a timely guide and a rigorous critique. Diaspora criticism takes the concept 'diaspora' as its object of inquiry and provides a framework for discussing displaced communities in a way that takes contemporary social, cultural and economic pressures into account. It also offers an alternative to Postcolonial Studies. This book is the first to provide an accessible overview of the critical trends in Diaspora criticism and to critically evaluate the major Diaspora critics and their models, with the aim of adding to the debate on methodology.

Never before has the future been so systematically envisioned, aggressively analyzed, and grandly theorized as in the present rush to cyberspace and digitalization. In the mid-twentieth century, questions about media technologies and society first emerged as scholarly hand-wringing about the deleterious sweep of electronic media and information technologies in mass culture. Now, questions about new technologies and their social and cultural impact are no longer limited to intellectual soothsayers in the academy but are pervasive parts of day-to-day discourses in newspapers, magazines, television, and film. Electronic Media and Technoculture anchors contemporary discussion of the digital future within a critical tradition about the media arts, society, and culture. The collection examines a range of phenomena, from boutique cyber-practices to the growing ubiquity of e-commerce and the internet. The essays chart a critical field in media studies, providing a historical perspective on theories of new media. The contributors place discussions of producing technologies in dialogue with consuming technologies, new media in relation to old media, and argue that digital media should not be restricted to the constraining public discourses of either the computer, broadcast, motion-picture, or internet industries. The collection charts a range of theoretical positions to assist readers interested in new media and to enable them to weather the cycles of hardware obsolescence and theoretical volatility that characterize the present rush toward digital technologies. Contributors include Ien Ang, John Caldwell, Cynthia Cockburn, Helen Cunningham, Hans Magnus Enzensberger, Guillermo G=mez-Pe±a, Arthur Kroker, Bill Nichols, Andrew Ross, Ellen Seiter, Vivian Sobchack, AllucquFre Rosanne Stone, Ravi Sundaram, Michael A. Weinstein, Raymond Williams, and Brian Winston. John Thornton Caldwell is chair of the film and television department at the University of California at Los Angeles. He is a filmmaker and media artist and author of Televisuality: Style, Crisis, and Authority in American Television (also from Rutgers University Press).

Diaspora & transnationalism are widely used concepts in academic & political discourses. Although originally referring to quite different phenomena, they increasingly overlap today. Such inflation of meanings goes hand in hand with a danger of essentialising collective identities. This book analyses this topic.

Combining history, cultural studies, sociology, international politics, and anthropology, this multidisciplinary volume analyzes transnational connections in India and South Asia. The articles explore how politics, gender, religious discourses, regional concepts, and public culture are being re-imagined amidst translocal connections. In theoretical terms, the volume contributes to understandings of the relationship between culture, globalization and social imagination by posing following questions: What is the nature of relationships between local worlds and global flows both historically and in contemporary South Asia? What role does the state play amidst global flows? How do power issues and local hierarchies contribute to social imaginaries? And how do translocal flows influence opportunities for individual agency? The volume introduces articles dealing with various aspects and arenas of globalization in South Asia: the economy and the media landscape in India (Derné); cinema (Kumar); global brands (Majumder); religious music and South Asian Islam (Viitamäki); foreign politics (Grekova-Stefanova); politics and gender (Roy); political uses of mobile telephony (Tenhunen); Indian diaspora (Svensson); migration in colonial India (Adapa); and the position of history in classical India (Karttunen).
