This chapter presents two conceptions of home in relation to peoples in the diaspora. The first is related to Jay and his daughter. It is the acknowledgement that some people move on without returning to their 'homeland'. It is the process through migration in which people disconnect from their homeland. In the second conception of home and homeland, the chapter acknowledges that home is not a natural calling. The field of diaspora studies has also grown mature in conceptualizing and theory, along with a number of academic journals, and continues to emphasize the variation and patterns in the ways the umbilical cord between the migrant community and the homeland is structured and organized. The chapter argues that the success of these national diaspora schemes needs to be mirrored against the fact that 'homecoming' is not a natural process.
