Towards empowerment capital
This article examines how British migrant women in Asia have used ethnic associations to exercise agency in contexts where it was otherwise constrained. Drawing on historical examples from across Asia alongside oral history interviews and a case study of the Association of British Women in Malaysia, it traces two pathways of engagement: participation in existing male-dominated ethnic associations, and the establishment of women-led organisations.…

Benjamin Wilkie. The Scots in Australia, 1788–1938
The history of the Scottish diaspora continues to be a burgeoning field of research. Benjamin Wilkie’s The Scots in Australia, 1788–1938 is a welcome and valuable addition to the existing work. The book offers important new insights into the settlement of Scots in Australia, their networks, their culture, and, in a particularly important chapter, their interactions with, and impact on, indigenous Australians. The book offers a longitudinal assess…
The English diaspora in North America
From the early eighteenth century, a vibrant English associational culture emerged that was, by many measures, ethnic in character. English ethnic organisations spread across North America from east to west, and from north to south, later becoming a truly global phenomenon when reaching Australasia in the later nineteenth century. This books charts the nature, extent and character of these developments. It explores the main activities of English …
Mark Hampton. Hong Kong and British Culture, 1945–97
A Special Administration Region of the People’s Republic of China since the Handover in 1997, Hong Kong’s connection with Great Britain remains visible in the city to this day. Mark Hampton’s fascinating study on Hong Kong and British culture provides rich insights into key reasons for the endurance of that British legacy, documents British cultural engagement with Hong Kong, and demonstrates how Hong Kong Chinese embraced British culture, post–W…

Racial Crossings
In January 1882 a banquet was held in Auckland’s Choral Hall to mark the visit of Tawhiao, second Māori King, member of Ngāti Mahuta iwi and leader of the Waikato tribes. A special Reception Committee had been set up to publicly entertain Tawhiao and his chiefs, the festivities culminating with a dinner in the evening. ‘The Europeans already assembled’, reported the Auckland Star, ‘received the visitors with cheers’. With the Auckland Mayor presi…

Globalizing St George
While English nationalism has recently become a subject of significant scholarly consideration, relatively little detailed research has been conducted on the emigrant and imperial contexts, or on the importance of Englishness within a global British identity. This article demonstrates how the importance of a global English identity can be illuminated through a close reading of ethnic associational culture. Examining organizations such as the St G…

The Image of Scotland which We Cherish in Our Hearts’
Scottish migrants fostered a range of cultural activities in the new worlds in which they settled, thereby identifying themselves as a distinct ethnic group. Celebrations of Scotland's national bard, Robert Burns, were the one recurring theme within all sites of settlement. The iconic figure of Burns is, in fact, central to the formulation, expression and commemoration of a Scottish cultural identity around the world. The present article explores…
Scottish Ethnicity and the Making of New Zealand Society, 1850-1930
The Scots accounted for around a quarter of all UK-born immigrants to New Zealand between 1861 and 1945, but have only been accorded scant attention in New Zealand histories, specialist immigration histories and Scottish Diaspora Studies. This is peculiar because the flow of Scots to New Zealand, although relatively unimportant to Scotland, constituted a sizable element to the country's much smaller population. Seen as adaptable, integrating rela…

Manly Games, Athletic Sports and the Commodification of Scottish Identity
This article explores the development of Caledonian Gatherings in New Zealand from their first emergence in the 1860s until 1915. As one of the defining features of Scottish immigrant community life in the Diaspora, the Gatherings are a global phenomenon. In New Zealand, their development is intrinsically bound to that of Scottish associations, with Caledonian Games being, in fact, the crucial motor for the associations’ rise. The assessment of C…
Where the Measureless Ocean between us will Roar”
Personal correspondence is a unique source for migration historians in that it opens an unprecedented inroad into the interior world of migrants. Letters are more than simple means to add colour to historical analysis. By exploring the diverse range of epistolary practices among members of New Zealand's Scottish community, this study takes agency as its point of departure. In so doing, it focuses on the multifaceted roles of letters in the contex…
