Rezension

"To read these essays is to be challenged again and again by some of the brightest minds and most sophisticated political sensibilities at work today. This volume is essential reading." - Paul Spickard (author of Almost All Aliens) "A very valuable resource for students and scholars of Asian American and ethnic studies. Highly recommended." (Choice) "Pedagogically focused and structured, Asian American Studies Now underscores the present-day relevance of the field, given the contemporary realities of neoliberal globalization and the post-9/11 security state. Asian American Studies Now is a return to the field's community-driven roots."
(MELUS)
