Flashpoints for Asian American Studies (Hardcover)

Emerging from mid-century social movements, Civil Rights Era
formations, and anti-war protests, Asian American studies is now an
established field of transnational inquiry, diasporic engagement,
and rights activism. These histories and origin points analogously
serve as initial moorings for Flashpoints for Asian American
Studies, a collection that considers-almost fifty years after its
student protest founding--the possibilities of and limitations
inherent in Asian American studies as historically entrenched,
politically embedded, and institutionally situated interdiscipline.
Unequivocally, Flashpoints for Asian American Studies investigates
the multivalent ways in which the field has at times and-more
provocatively, has not-responded to various contemporary crises,
particularly as they are manifest in prevailing racist, sexist,
homophobic, and exclusionary politics at home, ever-expanding
imperial and militarized practices abroad, and neoliberal practices
in higher education.
