This handbook, the first of its kind, provides a rich overview of the socio-political issues and dynamics impacting Turkeys diasporic groups and diaspora policymaking.
Turkey constitutes an important case study in the field of diaspora studies with a diaspora population of around 6.5 million. This handbook therefore brings together emerging and established scholars to explore the central issues, actors, and processes relating to Turkeys diasporic groups and diaspora outreach. Taken together, the historical and contemporary analyses presented in this volume provide readers a multi-lens perspective on the trajectories of Turkeys diasporic communities and diaspora policymaking in a wide range of regional contexts, including Europe, North America, and Oceania. The handbook comprises six analytical parts:
- Contextualising Turkeys diasporas: past and present
- Localisation, transnational belongings, and identity
- Governing diasporas
- Micro-spaces and everyday practices
- Cultural production, aesthetics, and creativity
- Country-specific perspectives
The volume offers insights into the debates and processes that structure each of these thematic clusters, but also provides a comprehensive overview of the dynamics shaping Turkeys diverse diaspora populations today.
The contributions encompass a range of disciplines, including anthropology, history, human geography, political science, international relations, and sociology, and the volume will be vital reading for anyone interested in Turkey, the Middle East, and diasporas.
Recenzijas
"Diaspora in migration studies is a deeply contested concept with often diametrically opposed scholarly approaches. It is also a highly politicised concept and gives sometimes rise to heated debates. Without a doubt diaspora cannot be tackled with a one-size-fits-all approach. The editors of this handbook have understood this quite well. They have compiled chapters that together display the multitude of contextual and historical manifestations and modalities of diaspora. The chapters are published in a Handbook of Turkeys Diasporas, but the contributions are a must-read also for those working in other fields."
Thijl Sunier, Chair of Islam in European Societies and Professor of Anthropology of Religion, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
"In this collection of illuminating contributions on Turkeys diasporas, Ayca Arkilic and Banu Senay have assembled a highly innovative group of expert authors who give guidance to this crucial case in diaspora studies. The content of this volume is characterized by diverse disciplines, and the contributions convincingly employ insights from various conceptual perspectives. They establish new ground in topics ranging from the historical trajectories, emigration patterns and efforts at diaspora control to external voting, dual citizenship and engagement in country-of-origin affairs. Each of the individual chapters draws a differentiated portrait. A truly remarkable achievement."
Thomas Faist, Professor of Sociology, Bielefeld University
"Turkeys diaspora population is an impressive account of migration spread globally. The volume traces the paths of Turkeys diasporas from guest workers in Europe to citizens abroad worldwide. Its chapters show various connections across different family and commercial networks, linking private and public spaces as well as economic and political ones; they present the impact of their experiences abroad on the home country and vice-versa, that is the effect of home country on their everyday experiences abroad. Past and present modes of organisation, mobilisation, new dynamics on cultural production combining various local, national, regional inputs, reflect multiple belongings and a sense of citizenship here and there. This handbook, in which empirical research meets conceptual analysis, is also important for comparisons with other diasporic experiences and an indispensable example for those working on this important social and political issue that is at the core of mobility of individuals and globalisation of states."
