Title of the paper : Diaspora of Forced Migration and Their Literature

Abstract: Diaspora of forced migration are seen in all the countries and lands having migrated out of compulsion. Their literature explores the multi layered impacts of displacement, encompassing both the experiences of those who are compelled to move and the consequences arising for the receiving communities and countries. It examines the diverse factors of forced migration which include conflicts, persecutions, civil wars, ethnic wars, terrorism, repatriation, natural disasters and it analyses the social, economic, political and psychological effects of displacement and the trauma suffered by them during the pre and post migration. This article tries to investigate the power dynamics on forced migration, striving to centre the experiences of forced migrants. It has also attempted to understand the suffocation arising out of cultural crisis, loss of homeland and resistance of receiving society and to explore how they ventilate their pain and pressure by creating literature which may bring solution to their problems through the global community.
