    Abstract: 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 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)"...

    Abstract: The Scots accounted for around a quarter of all UK-born immigrants to New Zealand between 1861 and 1945, but have only been accorded scant attention in New Zealand histories, specialist immigration histories and Scottish Diaspora Studies. This is peculiar because the flow of Scots to New Zealand, although relatively unimportant to Scotland, constituted a sizable element to the country's much smaller population. Seen as adaptable, integrating relatively more quickly than other ethnic migrant groups in New Zealand, the Scots' presence was obscured by a fixation on the romanticised shortbread tin façade of Scottish identity overseas.Uncovering Scottish ethnicity from the verges of nostalgia, this study documents the notable imprint Scots left on New Zealand. It examines Scottish immigrant community life, culture and identity between 1850 and 1930. Key Featuresexplores how Scottish immigrants negotiated their ethnicity and how that ethnicity fed into wider social structures in New Zealandargues that Scottish ethnicity functioned as a positive mechanism for integration into the new societyshows that the Scots made a huge contribution contributed to the making of New Zealand society...
