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 émigré Scots overseas and at home.Key Features:Comprehensive overview of Scottish diaspora historySections explaining themes and geographiesInternational in scopeConceptual case studies: England & Ireland; United States; Canada; Africa; Asia; Australia & New Zealand (the Antipodes)"ScotsForeign countriesHistoryScotlandEmigration and immigrationHistoryScotlandCivilizationScotsHistory.909.049163Bueltmann Tanja1609576Hinson Andrew1609577Morton Graeme886581MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816646803321The Scottish diaspora3936870UNINA
