This interdisciplinary volume examines the multifaceted dynamics of the Punjabi diaspora, moving beyond conventional frameworks to explore the diverse cultural, linguistic, religious, and regional identities of Punjabis across the globe. The book addresses contemporary issues affecting Punjab and its diaspora, including migration patterns, identity formation, gender dynamics, economic contributions, political participation, and cultural representation from colonial migration to present-day transnationalism. Drawing on primary research, interviews, and case studies across four thematic sections, the collection features contributions from scholars in Canada, the UK, France, and Europe, offering comparative perspectives on varied Punjabi diasporic experiences in different geopolitical contexts. The volume explores how diaspora communities maintain homeland connections while examining economic impact through remittances, entrepreneurship, and philanthropy. Some of the key themes explored include preservation and transformation of cultural practices, hybrid identities, media representations, political transnational networks, and issues of diversity, marginality, and inclusion within diasporic communities. This volume serves as essential reading for researchers and students in migration studies, diaspora studies, South Asian studies, sociology, anthropology, cultural studies, gender studies, media studies, and interdisciplinary studies.
