Who are the diasporas in the Indian subcontinent​

Answer:

Diaspora is migration during the era of nationalism, not just a scattering of peoples but also a politico-emotional gathering in far-off lands under the sign of the nation. Diaspora is an idea that only makes sense in the era of nationalism. Prior to nationalism’s birth in the 19th century, people moved routinely. They traveled from their local places of birth and social sustenance to territories so far that they lost touch with their early homes. Most of these migrants did not think of themselves as part of a coherent diaspora, mainly because they did not see their places of origin as part of a national project. When people of the Indian subcontinent (desis, or those from the desh, homeland), for instance, commonly traveled to Southeast Asia or to Africa as part of the world of the Indian Ocean (that has been called the Afrasian Sea), there is no evidence that they saw themselves as part of a desi diaspora. [note 1] On the contrary, they took with them social practices, habits and materials from their homelands, moved to far-off locales and set to work in the construction of a new ethos, one that was defined in conversation with the materials and ideas that they found in those parts.

The ancient and early modern migrations of people from the Indian subcontinent are a prelude to the diaspora of the 19th century and after, but they are not a part of it. What defines the diaspora of the 19th century onwards, in the era of nationalism, is that as people left a homeland that was already seen as a “nation,” they continued to bear fond memories of that homeland and saw themselves as somewhat patriotic to it. Even though the word diaspora comes to us from the Greek for scattering (which implies any migration) and even though it is classically used to refer to the Jewish Diaspora after the destruction of the Temple in 70 C.E. [note 2], the concept in modern times refers specifically to the idea of a departure from a national homeland and a nostalgia for that homeland. Thus the two kinds of migration should not be conflated.

What was Henry David Thoreau’s purpose in writing “resistance to civil government”
Rama09 [41]

The correct answer is C.

Henry David Thoreau’s purpose in writing “resistance to civil government” was to explain the need to prioritize one's conscience over the dictates of laws.

In his essay, Thoreau explains that governments are typically more harmful than helpful and therefore cannot be justified. According to him, this defect could not be fixed with democracy because being a majority does not imply having the best morals and ideas.

Because of this, Thoreau calls citizens to follow their own morals and distance themselves from unfair governments. He believed that people should not dedicate themselves to eliminating evil if they did not want to, but they did have to avoid participating in it.

Write a letter to invite your cousin to spend the holidays with your grandparents giving two reasons why he/she should pay them
sergij07 [2.7K]
Hey cousin Meera

I hope you are doing great! As you know I am going to our grandparents for the holidays. I think you should join too. I know you can’t live without Internet. But I remember that you wanted to read the books that you got on your birthday last month but didn’t get the time. Now you can. And the other time you wanted to learn how the shepherd boy made that sound of a tiger that totally freaked you out! Or the time we wanted to discover the spooky house everyone is scared about and became the hero’s of the town! Meera we all need a break form the Internet so I know you wanted to do many things. Now it is your chance to do it. The choice is yours!

Yours. Krishna
Hope to see you at our grandparents
