Displacements and Diasporas
Asians have settled in every country in the Western Hemisphere; some are recent arrivals, other descendents of immigrants who arrived centuries ago. Bringing together essays by thirteen scholars from the humanities and social sciences, Displacements and Diasporas explores this genuinely transnational Asian American experience-one that crosses the Pacific and traverses the Americas from Canada to Brazil, from New York to the Caribbean. With an emp…

Red Turbans in the Trinity Alps
This article shows how social violence among Chinese in the mining districts of California during the 1850s was an extension of the Red Turban Rebellion and subsequent ethnic civil war between “local” and “guest peoples” in the Pearl River Delta of South China. In that context, I read a popular religious text, a secret society manual, and temple carvings to argue that Chinese workingmen in the Gold Rush imagined a moral economy that enabled the c…
Racial Reconstruction
In Racial Reconstruction Edlie L. Wong braids together an extraordinary range of literary texts, court decisions, political speeches, and public lectures to trace the triangulated processes of racial formation in the long nineteenth century. Wong shows how the racialization of both citizenship and immigration in the postemancipation period were intertwined transnational discourses embedded in American engagements in the Caribbean and the Pacific.…
Look at Mother Nature on the Run in the 21stCentury
There is growing interest in a framework for responsible research and innovation within Europe. This paper explores why this has come about and suggests that it is related to a concern with emerging and converging technologies that goes beyond a narrow conception of risk to the environment or to human health. Rather, there is a trepidation arising out of the transformative capacity of modern technologies and their stated aspiration to manipulate …
The Embedded Nature of Rural Legal Services
There is a considerable amount of literature on embeddedness as part of sociological theory of economic action. Cultural and structural embeddedness often work together to shape the framework of economic relations, but, in an analysis of rural solicitors, we find unevenness between cultural and structural embeddedness. There are strong traits of the former, through a sense of place and belonging, but much less evidence of the latter with the stru…
Resources, Rights, and Environmental Regulation
Prior to the Human Rights Act 1998, there were significant expectations that it would promote the development of environmental rights and extend remedies for environmental harm. This has not been the case, but then the expectations were probably always false. The paper points to three reasons why: the retention of a strong model of parliamentary sovereignty; the need to mould human rights principles alongside the common law; the traditional reluc…
Monitoring the Community Impacts of the Northwest Forest Plan
Use of existing data sources has made the social indicators approach an attractive method for anticipating the social and economic effects of policy changes on resource-dependent communities. Despite its practicality, this approach is severely limited by data availability and reliance on aggregate figures that obscure variation between smaller areas. A forest-dependent community in Washington State was studied in an attempt to discern the effects…
Cascadia
This paper aims to demonstrate how globalization and discourses on regional/national identities cannot only create cross‐border/regional social spaces but also the criteria to select a transnational elite to occupy the cross‐border space reified by interplay of myths and logic. Using the case of Cascadia, we observe a construction of regional social space, taking place along the Pacific Northwest border of U.S. and Canada, through the process of …
New York before Chinatown
From George Washington's desire (in the heat of the Revolutionary War) for a proper set of Chinese porcelains for afternoon tea, to the lives of Chinese-Irish couples in the 1830s, to the commercial success of Cheng and Eng (the Siamese twins), to rising fears of the heathen Chinee, this work offers a look at the role Chinese people, things and ideas played in the fashioning of American culture and politics. Piecing together various historical fr…

The Licensing of Null Arguments in American Sign Language
The distribution of null arguments across languages has been accounted for in terms of two distinct strategies: licensing by agreement and licensing by topic. Lillo-Martin (1986, 1991) claims that American Sign Language (ASL) exploits both strategies for licensing null arguments, depending on the morphological characteristics of the verb. Here we show that this is incorrect. Once the nonmanual correlates of agreement features (comparable to the n…

The rightward analysis of wh-movement in ASL
Neidle, Kegl, Bahan, Aarons, & MacLaughlin 1997 argues that rightward WH-movement in ASL constitutes a counterexample to claims by Kayne (1994) that all phrasal projections exhibit specifier-head-complement order and that syntactic movement is leftward. Petronio & Lillo-Martin 1997, although not adopting Kayne's antisymmetry framework, offers a critique of our analysis and a proposal involving leftward WH-movement. Here, we argue that Petronio an…

The Influence of Social Network Ties on Recreation and Leisure
Social structural analyses of recreation and leisure experiences have traditionally focused on the influence of small, bounded activity groups, ignoring the extended personal and social networks in which these groups are enmeshed. This paper describes a rationale and process for social structural research using social network analysis. Data from an exploratory study analyzing leisure behaviors as the outcome of affective social relationships link…
Density as an incomplete cause of crowding in backcountry settings
The simple bivariate density‐crowding relationship is reexamined in a study of backcountry use in Yosemite National Park. It is found to be lacking in predictive ability. A more inclusive path model is tested that takes into account personal and experiential motive factors. The introduction of these factors reduces the effect of social density to a level that is not statistically significant. Social density is, in this sense, spurious, and crowdi…
Alone with others
Attitudinal studies of wilderness visitors have indicated that people seek opportunities to limit interaction with other visitors so as to achieve privacy and solitude. This conventional interpretation of wilderness recreation was evaluated by comparing measures of visitor attitudes and social behavior in the backcountry of Yosemite National Park. Results show no association between visitor attitudes toward crowding and observed social interactio…
