Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book provides insight into the relationship between embodied processes and products of remembering and belonging among British Bangladeshi women in Tower Hamlets, London. Based on an analysis of memories performed in both professional and social dancing among British Bangladeshi women, as well as of the spaces and encounters that enable the production, transmission, and negotiation of such memories, this book addresses questions about the relationship between remembering and identification in the diaspora.
