Description
|
|
|
|
Particularly since the Partition of 1947, the Sindh people of the Indus River Valley have migrated in large numbers from what is now Pakistan, settling in communities all over the world and adapting to their new homelands. This collection of essays treats Sindh and its people not as isolated regional entities, but rather as elements in a wider socio-cultural and historical web. Sindhis are now a global community, and the book integrates detailed studies on Pakistan with those from India and the Diaspora, celebrating rather than erasing multicultural faces from Sindh's human tapestry.
