This comprehensive anthology, arranged in four parts and featuring a stellar group of contributors, summarizes and defines the current shape of this rapidly changing field, addressing topics such as transnationalism, U.S. imperialism, multiracial identity, racism, immigration, citizenship, social justice, and pedagogy. Jean Yu-wen Shen Wu and Thomas C. Chen have selected essays for the significance of their contribution to the field and their clarity, brevity, and accessibility to readers with little to no prior knowledge of Asian American studies. Featuring both reprints of seminal articles and groundbreaking texts, as well as bold new scholarship, Asian American Studies Now addresses the new circumstances, new communities, and new concerns that are reconstituting Asian America. 606 $aAsian Americans$xHistory 606 $aAsian Americans$xSocial conditions 606 $aAmerican literature$xAsian American authors 615 0$aAsian Americans$xHistory. 615 0$aAsian Americans$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aAmerican literature$xAsian American authors. 676 $a973/.0495 701 $aWu$b Jean Yu-wen Shen$f1948-$01807571 701 $aChen$b Thomas C$01800194 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910974923003321 996 $aAsian American studies now$94357375 997 $aUNINA
