This book considers the role of civilian workers on U.S. bases in
Okinawa, Japan and how transnational movements within East Asia
during the Occupation period brought foreign workers, mostly from
the Philippines, to work on these bases. Decades later, in a
seeming "reproduction of base labour", returnees of both Okinawan
and Philippine heritage began occupying jobs on base as United
States of Japan (USFJ) employees. The book investigates the role
that ethnicity, nationality, and capital play in the lives of these
base employees, and at the same time examines how Japanese and
Okinawan identity/ies are formed and challenged. It offers a
valuable resource for those interested in Japan and Okinawa, U.S.
military basing, migration, and mixed ethnicities.
