Description

"This book explores the impact of South Asian migration from the 1950s onwards on both the local white, British-born population and the migrants themselves by using life-story interviews and oral history archives. Taking Leicester as a main case study - identified as a European model of multicultural success - the book offers a historically grounded analysis of the human experiences of migration. Author Joanna Herbert shows how migration created challenges for both existing residents and newcomers, for both male and female migrants, and explores how they perceived and negotiated boundaries within the local contexts of their everyday lives."--BOOK JACKET.
