Culture Beyond Country examines how Iranians in Los Angeles, Stockholm, and Toronto have strategically mobilized culture to assert belonging within the multicultural frameworks of their diaspora homes. By highlighting the tensions between cultural visibility and political marginalization, Culture Beyond Country brings a critical lens to immigrant integration and advances new ways of thinking about citizenship in an era of neoliberal multiculturalism.
