Asian migrants are inextricably linked to contemporary debates
concerning the nation-state, neoliberalism, globalization, and
transnationalism. This volume brings together these streams of
inquiry and proposes a synthetic approach to examine various
processes of migration and community formation on a global scale.
The essays included in "Asian Diasporas" look at the worldwide
dispersal of Asian populations through the lens of diaspora. They
illustrate the underlying structures of inequality that create
diasporic communities--the cultural barriers that impede belonging
to the place they inhabit and the place they call "homeland," the
unequal processes that embody globalization, and the social
inequalities in host and origin country alike. Five major themes
connect and cut across the collection: the recognition of
inter-Asian strife; the persistence of the nation state; the
salience of race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality; the forces of
labor, colonialism, and globalization; and the centrality of
culture.
