Diasporic Practices and Cultural Identifications of Shanghainese Seamen in Liverpool
This article draws on the understudied oral testimonies collected by Guanbao Shen and Ling Li in 1997 and 1998 to discuss the diasporic practices and cultural identifications of Shanghainese seamen in Liverpool, a community that has received less scholarly attention than other overseas Chinese communities.

Chinatown in Transition
Recent interest in the history of Chinese in the United States and problems of Chinatown, San Francisco has failed to produce an adequate history, much less a comprehensive study of Chinatown.* This essay is not intended to compensate for existing deficiencies: rather, its limited objectives are to delineate significant changes in Chinatown in the last two decades and to place important events of 1968 in historical perspective

Race, Class, Citizenship, and Extraterritoriality
Not since the protracted national debate over whether the Chinese should be excluded from the U.S. in the 1870s and early 1880s have we seen more sustained media coverage and acrimonious debate on the so-called Asian connection in the campaign finance scandal of 1996. Based on my own collection and estimate, no less than 4,000 articles have been published on the subject (newspapers and magazines) between September 1996 and February 1998. As of th…
