A history of the Scottish diaspora from c.1700 to 1945GBS_insertPreviewButtonPopup(['ISBN:9780748648931','ISBN:9780748648924','ISBN:9780748648948']);Did you know that Scotland was one of Europe's main population exporters in the age of mass migration? Or that the Scottish Honours System was introduced as far afield as New Zealand?This comprehensive introductory history of the Scottish diaspora examines these and related issues, exploring the migration of Scots overseas, their experiences in the new worlds in which they settled and the impact of the diaspora on Scotland. Global in scope, the book's distinctive feature is its focus on both the geographies of the Scottish diaspora and key theories, concepts and themes, including associationalism and return migration. By revisiting these themes throughout the chapters, the multifaceted characteristics of 'Scottishness' abroad are unravelled, transcending narrow interpretations that define the Scottish diaspora primarily in terms of the movement of people. Readers will gain an understanding of migration flows, destination countries and the imprints and legacies of emigre Scots overseas and at home.Key Features:Comprehensive overview of Scottish diaspora historySections explaining themes and geographiesInternational in scopeConceptual case studies: England United States; Canada; Africa; Asia; Australia & New Zealand (the Antipodes)
