Through the use of qualitative and quantitative research methods and spatial analysis techniques, we examine the ways various diaspora groups interact within the group, with their homelands and their host societies. In this regard, we will analyze the influences non-static diasporas have on their homelands and host societies socially, politically, and culturally, but also, for example, political, social and religious diversities within groups and between groups. Finally, we investigate whether if diasporas contribute to the rise of a global society, taking into consideration processes that strengthen as well as weaken the rise of a universal solidarity and cosmopolitan identities.
