Abstract

The concept of diaspora has been used in interviews with a group of women with a variety of connections with Poland to assess their views on 'being Polish.' This research has included an investigation of how diaspora was, and still is, used to define what is regarded as an acceptable lifestyle for Polish women. Attention has also been given to the concept of diaspora space, which could be extended to reassess the emotional aspects of identity.
