    25 Handbook of Bibliography on Diaspora and Transnationalism.Pdf

    BIBLIOGRAPH Y A Hand-book on Diaspora and Transnationalism FIRST EDITION April 2013 Compiled By Monika Bisht Rakesh Ranjan Sadananda Sahoo Draft Copy for Reader’s Comments Global Research Forum on Diaspora and Transnationalism www.grfdt.org Bibleography Preface Large scale international mobility of the people since colonial times has been one of the most important historical phenomenon in the human history. This has impacted upon the social, cultural, political and economic landscape of the entire globe. Though academic interest goes back little early, the phenomenon got the world wide attention as late as 1990s. We have witnessed more proactive engagement of various organizations at national and international level such as UN bodies. There was also growing research interest in the areas. Large number of institutions got engaged in research on diaspora-international migration-refugee-transnationalism. Wide range of research and publications in these areas gave a new thrust to the entire issue and hence advancing further research. The recent emphasis on diaspora’s development role further accentuated the attention of policy makers towards diaspora. The most underemphasized perhaps, the role of diaspora and transnational actors in the overall development process through capacity building, resource mobilization, knowledge sharing etc. are growing areas of development debate in national as well as international forums. There have been policy initiatives at both national and international level to engage diaspora more meaningfully since last one decade. There is a need for more wholistic understanding of the enrite phenomena to facilitate researchers and stakeholders engaged in the various issues related to diaspora and transnationalism. Similarly, we find the areas such as social, political and cultural vis a vis diaspora also attracting more interest in recent times as forces of globalization intensified in multi direction.

    Volume 22, 2021 – Journal of Urban Culture Research Hindu Music In Bangkok: The Om Uma Devi Shiva Band Kumkom Pornprasit+ (Thailand) Abstract This research focuses on the Om Uma Devi Shiva, a Hindu band in Bangkok, which was founded by a group of acquainted Hindu Indian musicians living in Thailand. The band of seven musicians earns a living by performing ritual music in Bangkok and other provinces. Ram Kumar acts as the band’s manager, instructor and song composer. The instruments utilized in the band are the dholak drum, tabla drum, harmonium and cymbals. The members of Om Uma Devi Shiva band learned their musical knowledge from their ancestors along with music gurus in India. In order to pass on this knowledge to future generations they have set up music courses for both Indian and Thai youths.

First, we compare the use of self-promotion and opponent attack, and their respective success online by categorizing 1208 most commonly used hashtags accordingly into the two categories. Second, we classify the tweets applying a qualitative typology to hashtags on the subjects of nationalism, corruption, religion and development. We find that the ruling BJP tended to promote itself over attacking the opposition whereas the main challenger INC was more likely to attack than promote itself. Moreover, while the INC gets more retweets on average, the BJP dominates Twitter’s trends by flooding the online space with large numbers of tweets. We consider the implications of our findings hold for political communication strategies in democracies across the world.

    A Case Study of the Indian Diaspora in Thailand by Ruchi Agarwal

    Journal of www.cesran.org Journal of Global Analysis Global Analysis Vol. 8 | No. 2 2018 Summer Issue Breaking the Links? A Case study of the Indian Diaspora in Thailand By Ruchi Agarwal Abstract Thailand has long been a destination for South Asian migrants as well as a second home for Indian Diaspora. Recent migrations such as the post-partition period have been relatively understudied, however. In this paper, I focus upon the migration of Indian community to Thailand in the late 1940s to understand how recent arrivals influenced and integrated into existing transnational communities. I am specifically interested in the trajectories of individual migrants and the public representation and organization of Thailand’s evolving Indian diasporic community. A historical linkage lies between South and Southeast Asia and as a result, the Indians moving to Southeast Asia are not entirely ‘foreigners’. This paper explores the trajectories of the more recent Indian diasporic community in an attempt to analyze the aspirations of the newer migrants and their social life outside of the homeland. The findings in this paper are based on past literature, personal observations, and interviews with Indians residing in Ruchi Agarwal is Bangkok. Lecturer at Mahidol University International Keywords: Diaspora, Migration, Migrants, Temples, Thailand College, Thailand. Journal of Breaking the Links? Global A Case study of the Analysis Indian Diaspora in Thailand Introduction The Indian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (2009)1 estimated that the total overseas Indian community constitutes over 25 million spread across different parts of the world. Such large numbers are a result of the different waves of migration beginning in 1830s in the form of indentured labour followed by the voluntary migrations of professionals and information technology specialists in the last three decades of the 20th century.

    A Sense of Nana's Globalization

    International (Humanities, Social Sciences and Arts) Veridian E-Journal, Silpakorn University Volume 11 Number 4 January-June 2018 ISSN 1906 – 3431 A sense of Nana’s globalization Prisana Munpao (ปริศนา มั่นเภา)* Abstract The Nana precinct in Bangkok is the area of lower Sukhumvit concentrating between the 3 rdand the 11th of Sukhumvit’s north side, and 4th to 8th of the south side. The Nana enclave represents the best of Bangkok in that it exudes a global and cosmopolitan vibe enhancing a city that is an inclusive society, open and tolerate to vast cultural difference. These characteristics drew people into Bangkok leading to parts of the city becoming very congested comprising an Indians community that moved into the Nana enclave after road completion in 1950. The local population are Thai, Burmese, Thai-Lao and Indians. These groups have maintained their cultural heritage from their ancestors such as in costumes, languages and food. Tourists include western visitors, wealthy Thais, Middle Easterners, and more lately ASEAN tourists. Subsequently, the precinct can be interpreted in terms of (1) commoditization such as selling products and services – souvenirs, food and drink, medicine, street markets and living accommodations, (2) medical tourism through Bumrungrad International hospital and (3) globalization expression such as costumes, food, multi-languages, and hotels.
