Includes bibliographical references and index.

European tribes : transnational diasporic encounters / John McLeod -- Postcolonial studies inthe context of the "diasporic" Netherlands / Elleke Boehmer and Frances Gouda -- Transcultural encounters in contemporary art : gender, genre, and history / Siobhn Shilton -- "Naturally, I reject theterm "diaspora"? : Said and Palestinian dispossession / Patrick Williams -- Latin Americans in London and the dynamics of diasporic identities / Patria Romn-Velazquez -- Constructing the metropolitanhomeland : the literatures of the white settler societies of New Zealand and Australia / Janet Wilson -- Exile, incarceration, and the homeland / Jewish References in French Caribbean novels / Celia Britton -- Vijay Singh's Indo-Fijian work ethic : the politics of diasporic definitions / Mohit Prasad -- French Atlantic diasporas / Bill Marshall -- Postcolonial transplants : cinema, diaspora, and the body politic / Elizabeth Ezra and Terry Rowden.

This edited collection breaks new ground within the field of postcolonial diaspora studies, moving beyond the predominantly Anglophone biasof much existing scholarship by investigating comparative links between a range of Anglophone, Francophone, Hispanic and Neerlandophone cultural contexts.Ranging across the disciplines of history, sociology, literary analysis, cultural studies and the visual arts, the collection examines both the contributions and limitations of existing postcolonial diaspora scholarship, as well as developing new cross-disciplinary theoretical paradigms. Exploring a variety of geographical locations including Europe, the Americas, the Pacific and the Middle East,the collection is divided into three main sections: 'Discovering Europe' (with essays by John McLeod, Elleke Boehmer and Frances Gouda, and Siobáhn Shilton); 'Nostalgia and the Longing for Home' (featuring Patrick Williams, Patria Roámn-Veálzquez and Janet Wilson); and 'Comparative Diasporic Contexts' (with contributions from Celia Britton, Mohit Prasad and Bill Marshall), concluding with a postscript by Elizabeth Ezra and Terry Rowden.
