Abstract
Diaspora and democracy: These two phenomena have always aroused the
interest of scholars. Indeed, in academic literature various significant
research contributions and discussions are focused separately on either
diaspora issues or on democracy. This special focus is an attempt to
combine these two categories by exploring democratisation through the
prism of diasporas’ activities and the other way round – to reveal the
influence of democratic changes on diaspora issues. Something that has
been less explored in literature is the role of the diaspora in democracybuilding
processes. In this context, articles presented in this issue of the
Global Campus Human Rights Journal are unique and in various ways fill
this gap in the academic literature.
The aim of the research in this special thematic focus is to explore the
role and influences that diasporas can have on democracy-building
processes by identifying diverse behavioural approaches applied in various
regions.
