Migration and Ethnicity: Basic Characteristics of the South Asian Diaspora in Great Britain
Ružica Čičak-Chand
; Institut za migracije i narodnosti, Zagreb, Hrvatska
Sažetak
The most common result of migration, regardless of its initial characteristics and the real nature of the phenomenon, is the settlement of a large number of migrants and the formation of ethnic communities or minorities in the new country. Migration from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh to Great Britain is without doubt closely tied to the British colonial presence on the Indian subcontinent. The result today are Asian ethnic colonies in a rift between the British practice of racial discrimination and a general British belief in "equality of all British subjects". In the given context, along with some historical notes, the author analyses mainly some contemporary individual sociocultural and political-immigrational aspects pertaining to the present of Asian populations in Britain.
