Tahseen Shams posits a new concept for thinking about these places that are neither the immigrants' homeland nor hostland—the "elsewhere." Drawing on rich ethnographic data, interviews, and analysis of the social media activities of South Asian Muslim Americans, Shams uncovers how different dimensions of the immigrants' ethnic and religious identities connect them to different elsewheres in places as far-ranging as the Middle East, Europe, and Africa. Yet not all places in the world are elsewheres. How a faraway foreign land becomes salient to the immigrant's sense of self depends on an interplay of global hierarchies, homeland politics, and hostland dynamics. Referencing today's 24-hour news cycle and the ways that social media connects diverse places and peoples at the touch of a screen, Shams traces how the homeland, hostland, and elsewhere combine to affect the ways in which immigrants and their descendants understand themselves and are understood by others.MuslimsPolitical activityUnited StatesEthnic relationsAsian Americans.Islamophobia.Muslim Americans.diaspora.globalization.immigrant identities.international migration.racialization.religion.transnationalism.MuslimsPolitical activity.305.800973Shams Tahseen1666869MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807451503321Here, there, and elsewhere4026357UNINA01567nas 2200445 a 450 991014503850332120240413013930.0(CKB)1000000000380266(CONSER) 86643027 (EXLCZ)99100000000038026619830614b19uu2008 uy aengurunu|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierASLH newsletter /American Society for Legal History[United States] American Society for Legal History1 online resource"The material previously published in the Newsletter will now be included in the Society's website"--ASLH newsletters web page, viewed May 12, 2009.Imprint varies.Print version: ASLH newsletter / (DLC)###86643027# (DLC)sn 86015520 (OCoLC)9602861 American Society for Legal History newsletterNewsletterLawUnited StatesHistoryPeriodicalsLawHistoryPeriodicalsDroitÉtats-UnisHistoirePériodiquesDroitHistoirePériodiquesLawHistoryLawHistoryDroitHistoirePériodiques.DroitHistoirePériodiques.349.73/05347.3005American Society for Legal History.JOURNAL9910145038503321exl_impl conversionASLH newsletter1978269UNINA
