While some of these groups may be fully absorbe d into the political ecology of nation-states as ethnic minorities, diaspor as and their transnational connections continue to define Southeast Asia an d beyond for two major reasons. First, the time-space compression articulat ed by David Harvey has taken a disruptive digital turn that has made it pos sible for diasporic subjects to keep up their transnational assemblage of r elationships and interventions. Second, migration today is hardly terminal and usually involves an ongoing movement among geographical nodes that keep s diasporic consciousness salient.\n\nIn view of the above, heritage plays an important role in connecting diasporic subjects with notions of home (wh erever that may be) and the experience of being in diaspora. This panel exp lores how various diasporas in and from Southeast Asia relate to their heri tage in crafting their transnational futures. Some issues that will be cons idered include: the role of heritage in formulating identities and negotiat ing inter-ethnic relations; heritage as a medium for mobilizing diasporic s ubjects; and diasporic heritage as an idiom for facilitating/revitalizing t ransnational connections. Through critical examination of these issues, thi s panel will foreground the role of heritage in the positioning and transit ioning of diasporas in and from Southeast Asia.
