In Building Diaspora, Emily Noelle Ignacio explores how Filipinos have used these subtle, cyber, but very real social connections to construct and reinforce a sense of national, ethnic, and racial identity with distant others. Through an extensive analysis of newsgroup debates, listserves, and website postings, she illustrates the significant ways that computer-mediated communication has contributed to solidifying what can credibly be called a Filipino diaspora. Lively cyber-discussions on topics including Eurocentrism, Orientalism, patriarchy, gender issues, language, and "mail-order-brides" have helped Filipinos better understand and articulate their postcolonial situation as well as their relationship with other national and ethnic communities around the world. Significant attention is given to the complicated history of Philippine-American relations, including the ways Filipinos are racialized as a result of their political and economic subjugation to U.S. interests. As Filipinos and many other ethnic groups continue to migrate globally, Building Diaspora makes an important contribution to our changing understanding of "homeland." The author makes the powerful argument that while home is being further removed from geographic place, it is being increasingly territorialized in space.Filipino AmericansSocial conditionsFilipino AmericansEthnic identityFilipino AmericansRace identityInternetSocial aspectsCommunity lifeUnited StatesTransnationalismPhilippinesRelationsUnited StatesUnited StatesRelationsPhilippinesFilipino AmericansSocial conditions.Filipino AmericansEthnic identity.Filipino AmericansRace identity.InternetSocial aspects.Community lifeTransnationalism.305.89/921073/090511Ignacio Emily1970-1754570MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910305559203321Building diaspora4191004UNINA
