Routledge Handbook of Asian Diaspora and Nationalism presents cutting-edge research on various temporal and spatial dimensions of Asian diasporic nationalism. It examines how nationalism is negotiated and renegotiated in the diasporic context, and how diasporic nationalism significantly contributes to the ongoing processes of transnationalism and ethnonationalism.

Divided thematically into four broad sections, the chapters critically examine how diasporic nationalism remains a subtle yet prominent characteristic of Asian diasporas today:

· Historicizing Diasporic Nationalism

· Diasporic Nationalism and Homeland Politics

· Diaspora and Cultural Nationalism

· Diaspora and Ethnonationalism

Contributing to the growing diaspora and transnational studies, this book serves as an essential reference guide for students and scholars across the social sciences and humanities.
