Amarasingam analyzes the reactions of diasporic Tamils in Canada at a time when the separatist Tamil movement was being crushed by the Sri Lankan armed forces. His work provides an in-depth examination of how a separatist sociopolitical movement beginning in Sri Lanka is carried forward, altered, and adapted by the diaspora.
