Summary/Abstract: The text is a review of Jerzy Hatłas’ book Bulgarians in the Northern Azov Sea region. The forgotten Diaspora. This review provides a brief overview of the seven chapters contained in the book. The book that is reviewed raises relevant and important issues of differentiation of the social world, migration, and sense of separateness and alienation proceeding from them, but also brings up questions of creating a community despite the differences experienced in the daily life. This book contributes to a better consideration of the phenomenon of national minorities in its various manifestations (linguistic, cultural, social, political) by people belonging to the world of science and social experts (politicians, public leaders, and activists). The book can be useful in a teaching process at different levels and in various specialties of education in different countries of Central Europe.
