Description

Highland Homecomings is the first full-length ethnographic study examining place, ancestry and territorial attachment within Scotland's diaspora communities. Author Paul Basu explores the journeys made to the Scottish Highlands and Islands by individuals undertaking genealogical research and seeking ancestral sites. This interdisciplinary work bridges anthropology, archaeology, history, historical geography, cultural studies, migration studies and tourism studies, addressing how modern mobility and rootlessness shape heritage tourism. The book employs innovative methodological approaches to analyse the emotional and cultural significance of homecoming journeys for the Scottish diaspora. It provides valuable insights into how genealogical research connects contemporary communities with their ancestral past, making it essential reading for scholars and practitioners in migration studies, tourism, Scottish studies and cultural anthropology.
