A study based on the second life in exile ‘Marubhoomiyile Marujeevithangal’

Abstract

Expatriation is a state of human condition in which an individual is forced to live either temporarily or permanently away from their place of birth and upbringing. Diaspora is theorized by Everett S. Lee’s Push & Pull Theory and RJ Ravenstein’s Law of Migration. This is a study of the distinctive living conditions of the international Malayalee diaspora inside the Arab world. Dr. Deepesh Karimbukara’s book “Marubhoomiyile Marujeevithangal” features an account of the experiences of the philanthropist Amanulla, who concluded his life in exile and returned to his native country. Amanulla says that, this is not only his life story, but also the story of many Malayalees who arrived as Arab expatriates and who came through his acquaintance testifying. The study is purely based on the expatriate’s pathetic living conditions who couldn’t achieve a successful life as they expected.
