520    Asians have settled in every country in the Western 
       Hemisphere; some are recent arrivals, other descendents of
       immigrants who arrived centuries ago. Bringing together 
       essays by thirteen scholars from the humanities and social
       sciences, Displacements and Diasporas explores this 
       genuinely transnational Asian American experience-one that
       crosses the Pacific and traverses the Americas from Canada
       to Brazil, from New York to the Caribbean. With an 
       emphasis on anthropological and historical contexts, the 
       essays show how the experiences of Asians across the 
       Americas have been shaped by the social dynamics and 
       politics of settlement locations as much as by 
       transnational connections and the economic forces of 
       globalization. Contributors bring new insights to the 
       unique situations of Asian communities previously 
       overlooked by scholars, such as Vietnamese Canadians and 
       the Lao living in Rhode Island. Other topics include 
       Chinese laborers and merchants in Latin America and the 
       Caribbean, Japanese immigrants and their descendants in 
       Brazil, Afro-Amerasians in America, and the politics of 
       second-generation Indian American youth culture. Engaging 
       issues of diaspora, transnational social practice and 
       community building, gender, identity, institutionalized 
       racism, and deterritoriality, this volume presents fresh 
       perspectives on displacement, opening the topic up to a 
       wider, more multidisciplinary terrain of inquiry and 
       teaching.
