The concept of Diaspora is central to this study, so it is appropriate at this point to reflect on its meaning and on what this work has established about its usefulness to the understanding of South Asian women's identity. Diaspora has become a breeding ground for new sociological concepts within scholarly work. In recent times, the diaspora has penetrated the discipline of sociology and provides new ways of thinking about race and ethnicity. Diaspora and Multiculturalism are the major themes of Monica Ali's novels. The term Diaspora comes from an ancient Greek word meaning to scatter about. And that's exactly what the people of a Diaspora do-they scatter from their homeland to places across the globe, spreading their culture as they go. A Diaspora is a large group of people with a similar heritage or homeland who have emigrated to places all over the world. Since the mid-1980s, and through the 1990s, diaspora has expanded in meaning to include more groups of people and placed more importance.Multiculturalism relates to communities containing multiple cultures.
