Trans-Pacific Interactions
Description
Reviews / Votes
"The book provides insights into how national and individual identities within both China and the United States were influenced by processes, perceptions, and activities in other countries." - H-Net
"This collection complicates our picture of U.S. history by demonstrating the ways in which transnational interactions shaped the dynamics of a society that was influenced by, and defined itself through/against, the trans-Pacific flows of ideas, goods, and people. In this way, Trans-Pacific Interactions fits well into a scholarly debate that attempts to transnationalize U.S. history." - Sebastian Conrad, European University Institute, Florence
"Trans-Pacific Interactions reminds us the best scholarship restlessly probes and reframes, defying static fields, separations, and national borders. Chinese studies has never been strictly Chinese, American studies never simply Euro-American, and Chinese-American studies never just of an ethnic group. This is an excellent, forward-thinking colloquy of top scholars contextualized wonderfully by our German colleagues Mayer and Künnemann." - John Kuo Wei Tchen, New York University and Museum of Chinese in America
