| 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. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
