What happened to the Children of the Diaspora? This is one man's personal account of the far-reaching effects of being a `child of the scattered'. It is also a testament to the courage of the Jewish refugees, how they rebuilt their lives in a foreign country, and of their major contribution to the war-effort.

This book is about discovering the hidden and horrific events and the bravery that lay behind my idyllic childhood in rural Suffolk from the end of World War Two. Parental discord led to a permanent parental rift, but, rightly or wrongly, I came to accept that as par for the course. It was only later in life, that I looked deeper into my family roots and had began to question the assumptions that I had bought into when I was younger, that I came to discover that my late mother had escaped from Nazi-occupied Austria just prior to the commencement of the war, and played a crucial role in the war-effort. Likewise I learnt that my late dad had become orphaned in his earlier teens and that his sister and brothers had struggled to bring him home from the workhouse. More of Dad's side of the story, including his crucial role in the D-day landings, will follow in the sequel to this book

DOWNLOAD EBOOK

Children of Globalization is the first book-length exploration of contemporary Diasporic Coming-of-age Novels in the context of globalized and de facto multicultural societies. Diasporic Coming-of-age Novels subvert the horizon of expectations of the originating and archetypal form of the genre, the traditional Bildungsroman, which encompasses the works of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Charles Dickens, and Jane Austen, and illustrates middle-class, European, "enlightened," and overwhelmingly male protagonists who become accommodated citizens, workers, and spouses whom the readers should imitate. Conversely, Diasporic Coming-of-age Novels have manifold ways of defining youth and adulthood. The culturally-hybrid protagonists, often experiencing intersectional oppression due to their identities of race, gender, class, or sexuality, must negotiate what it means to become adults in their own families and social contexts, at times being undocumented or otherwise unable to access full citizenship, thus enabling complex and variegated formative processes that beg the questions of nationhood and belonging in increasingly globalized societies worldwide.

Stan Rushworth's Diaspora's Children is the story of a mixed heritage man raised by his grandfather who gave him a value system and way of being that came into sharp contrast when he was called to duty as Vietnam vet. More than a memoir, Rushworth weaves his life story into an eloquent treatise on the effects of a genocide upon an entire race of people, 90% of whom were decimated in California alone by the colonization of North America. Brilliantly written with a deeply heartfelt tone, this is a book that deepens understanding of the effects of genocide, educating and enlightening the reader about the tragic consequences of the ubiquitous ways of "progress" that has resulted in racism, climate change and destruction of ancient tribal customs and cultures. Understanding deeply these consequences brings us to a place where healing can begin.

As the sixties began, intense political struggles caused South Africans to stream from their country -- most without passports, money, or education. Among them were political activists, writers, students, and musicians who over the next three decades would profoundly touch the lives of their hosts on every continent with their struggle, their culture, their unique South African dreams.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK

This book focuses on the neglected yet critical issue of how the global migration of millions of parents as low-waged migrant workers impacts the rights of their children under international human rights law. The work provides a systematic analysis and critique of how the restrictive features of policies governing temporary labour migration interfere with provisions of the Convention on the Rights of the Child that protect the child-parent relationship and parental role in children’s lives. Combining social and legal research, it identifies both potential harms to children’s well-being caused by prolonged child-parent separation and State duties to protect this relationship, which is deliberately disrupted by temporary labour migration policies. The book boldly argues that States benefitting from the labour of migrant workers share responsibility under international human rights law to mitigate harms to the children of these workers, including by supporting effective measures to maintain transnational child-parent relationships. It identifies measures to incorporate children’s best interests into temporary labour migration policies, offering ways to reduce interferences with children’s family rights. This book fills a gap that emerges at the intersection of child rights studies, migration research and existing literature on the purported nexus between labour migration and international development. It will be a valuable resource for academics, researchers and policymakers working in these areas.
