Between Colonialism and Diaspora

Sikh Cultural Formations in an Imperial World

Beschreibung

""Between Colonialism and Diaspora" is a major new work on Sikh history and culture. Tony Ballantyne has framed historical events and personalities within the broad context of transformations emerging from colonial rule. His treatment of Sikh memory and the past is provocative, and the final section on "bhangra" explores the broad implications of how a distinctly Punjabi cultural tradition has changed and in turn influenced international dance and music."--N. Gerald Barrier, coeditor of "Sikhism and History"
