Against the background of such celebrations, this book focuses on the diasporic networks--'home associations'--whose economic contributions are being used to develop home.

  • "This book engages critically with the current enthusiasm among policy-makers for treating the African diaspora as an untapped resource for combating poverty. Its focus on diasporic networks, rather than private remittances, reveals the particular successes and challenges diasporas face in acting as a group, not least in mobilising members of the diaspora to fulfill obligations to home."@en
