Synopsis

Well over a million people of Sri Lankan origin live outside South Asia. The Encyclopedia of the Sri Lanka Diaspora is the first comprehensive study of the lives, culture, beliefs and attitudes of immigrants and refugees from this island.

The Encyclopedia of the Sri Lanka Diaspora is a joint publication between the Institute of South Asian Studies, National University of Singapore and Editions Didier Millet. It will focus on the relationship between culture and economy in the Sri Lanka diaspora in the context of globalisation, increased transnational culture flows and new communication technologies. In addition to the geographic mapping of the Sri Lanka diaspora in the various continents, thematic chapters include topics on the Sri Lanka diaspora associated to new information and communication technologies, "long distance nationalism", citizenship, Sinhala, Tamil and Burgher disapora identities, religion and the spread of Buddhism, as well as the Sri Lankan cultural impact on other nations.
