Kidnap!

People from South Asia have been coming to Britain since the beginning of the 17th century. From the 1950s, increased immigration produced new generations of British Asians, who experienced both racism and economic hardship as they strove to express their entrepreneurial spirit and assert their religious identity. This book presents their story.

Oamenii din Asia de Sud au venit in Marea Britanie de la inceputul secolului al XVII-lea. Din anii 1950, imigratia crescuta a produs noi generatii de asiatici britanici, care au experimentat atat rasismul, cat si dificultati economice in timp ce se straduiau sa-si exprime spiritul antreprenorial si sa-si afirme identitatea religioasa.
