Focusing on ten migration crises in Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Europe, and Central America, the author charts the formation of these new transnational communities and analyzes their social, economic and political fall-out. In addition, considerable discussion is given to the factors that are facilitating and accelerating the growth of these movements; in particular, the disintegration and reconstitution of nation-states. The author examines the future for these new diasporas, questioning their predicted impact on the twenty-first century's political economy. New Diasporas will prove an essential and lively guide for students of ethnicity, migration, political science, international relations, and population geography.
