The Penguin Atlas of DiasporasA groundbreaking perspective on the great religious and cultural diasporas of the world. Here, the very definition of "diaspora"--which embraces forced exile, voluntary migrations, and "minorities of inferiorization"--is examined in detail. The text is richly complemented with full-color maps and an iconography of synagogues, churches, and other cultural markers. |
