Description: Asian and Asian American studies emerged, respectively , from Cold War and social protest ideologies. Yet, in the context of contemporary globalization, can these ideological distinction remain in place?Suggesting new directions for studies of the Asian diaspora, the prominent scholars who contribute to this volume raise important questions about the genealogies of these fields, their mutual imbrication, and their relationship to other disciplinary formations, including American and ethnic studies.
