Imagining and Doing Diaspora: Southeast European Perspectives
‘Diaspora’ has become an increasingly squishy concept: various migrant groups claim to constitute diasporas, governments address diasporas, and scholars struggle to differentiate between ‘diaspora’ as an analytical and as a practical category. The concept of diaspora also faced similar criticism such as the related ideas of nation and ethnicity – that it is liable to the dangers of ‘groupism’ and essentialism. Yet, if we do not take ‘diasporas’ as givens, this concept can produce real analytical value. Beyond that, diasporas are a fact in the sense that there are people out there in the world who believe in their existence and behave as such.
