A Chinese Reformer in Exile
Chinese Contract Labor in the Wake of the Abolition of Slavery in the Americas
Using Cuban archival material (including many documents acquired by private U.S. collectors), this article examines the lives of Chinese contract laborers in Cuba—“coolies”—in the second half of the nineteenth century after they completed the original eight-year contract and subsequent shorter forced re-contracts. The essay moves the argument beyond Chinese coolies simply replicating or prolonging slavery on Cuban plantations to glimpse the begin…
Missionaries, Miners, and Indians
The Yaqui Indians managed to avoid assimilation during the Spanish colonization of Mexico. Even when mining interests sought to wrest Yaqui labor from the control of the Jesuits who had organized Indian society into an agricultural system, the Yaqui themselves sought primarily to ensure their continuing existence as a people. More than a tale of Yaqui Indian resistance, Missionaries, Miners, and Indians documents the history of the Jesuit mission…

From Slavery to Freedom
To supplement a dwindling slave labour force on their sugar plantations, Cuban planters turned to south China’s Fujian and especially Guangdong provinces. From 1847 to 1874 they recruited 141,000 male labourers (125,000 of whom arrived in Cuba alive). Slave-like work and living conditions on plantations, with proximity to large numbers of slaves notwithstanding, Chinese coolies were not permanent or lifelong slaves. The main question asked is not…

Sites of Asian Interaction
A focus on the sites of Asian interaction enables this volume to shed new light on the growing field of diaspora studies. Research on Asia's many diasporas has enriched the older literature on migration to illuminate the links of kinship, affect, trade, and information that connect locations across Asia, and beyond. But where many recent works on particular diasporas have tended to look inwards - at how distinctive diasporic cultures maintained a…
Forging a Third Chinese Literature of the Americas
The genesis of this Amerasia Journal edition entitled “Towards a Third Literature: Chinese Writing in the Americas” is from July 2009 symposium at Nanjing University, “The International Conference on Chinese American Literature,” which was co-sponsored by Cheng Aimin, School of Foreign Studies, Nanjing University, and Jinqui Ling, Departments of English and Asian American Studies, University of California, Los Angeles
Chinatowns and Borderlands
This paper explores two dynamic places and spaces in the Americas, destination of several Asian diasporas-the Chinese, Japanese, and South Asian-as contact and exchange zones. One would be the ethnic enclaves commonly called 'Chinatowns', which stretch over time from the early sixteenth century to the present, and over space from Manila in the Spanish empire across the Pacific to all over the Americas. These Chinatowns, imagined and real and ridd…

Voluntary Organizations in the Chinese Diaspora
Do Chinese voluntary organizations continue to have a role in modern societies enmeshed in a globalizing world that questions continuation of the nation-state and ethnic identity? This book argues that Chinese voluntary organizations continue to play a significant role in both the established and new Chinese communities in the Diaspora. They are able to do so because of their ability to transform their organizational structure and functions. At t…

Opium and Social Control
The place of opium in the history of the Chinese diaspora in Latin America and the Caribbean has received scant attention. This article is a preliminary attempt to look into this history, based on fragmentary evidence available. From 1847 to l874, as many as 225,000 Chinese indentured or contract laborers (coolies), almost all men, were sent to Cuba, still a Spanish colony, and newly independent Peru. Both the human trade itself, as well as work …
Cuando Oriente llegó a América
Oriente no es una latitud geográfica y culturalmente lejana. Es una presencia viva en América Latina y el Caribe. Llegó en los baúles de los culíes chinos que en el siglo XIX reemplazaron a la mano de obra esclava de los negros y en las esperanzas de los que huían de revueltas políticas que los expulsaban de su tierra. Viajó más tarde con los japoneses y los coreanos. Este libro se refiere a los aportes de los asiáticos y sus descendientes y a es…

The History, Development, and Future of Ethnic Studies
INSPIRED by the civil rights movement and buoyed by the energy of the antiwar movement, a generation of American college students invaded admimstrative offices 25 years ago, demanding fundamental changes in higher education.

The faculty and administration were almost exclusively white and predominantly…

Yaqui
Among Mexico's indigenous populations, the Yaqui Indians of Sonora have most successfully repelled threats to their identity, land, and community. Interested in explaining how the relatively small nation withstood four centuries of contact with white culture, Evelyn Hu-DeHirt focuses here on the Indians' response to shifting environmental pressures in the period 1820 to 1910 an increasingly violent, and ultimately decisive, chapter in their lives
