From the Dust Jacket: "While the history of Asian migration to Latin America is well documented, we know little about the contemporary experience of diasporic Asians in this part of the world. MEMORIES OF A FUTURE HOME offers an intimate look at how diasporic Chinese in Panama construct a home and create a sense of belonging as they inhabit the interstices of several cultural-national formations -- Panama, their nation of residence; China/Taiwan, their ethnic homeland; and the United States, the colonial force. Juxtaposing the concepts of diaspora and citizenship, this book offers an innovative framework to help us understand how diasporic subjects engage the politics of cultural and political belonging in a transnational context. It does so by examining the interaction between continually shifting geopolitical dynamics, as well as the maneuvers undertaken by diasporic people to negotiate and transform those conditions. In essence, this book explores the contingent citizenship experienced by diasporic Chinese and their efforts to imagine and construct 'home' in diaspora 'MEMORIES OF A FUTURE HOME is a masterful ethnography, focusing specifically on the Chinese in Panama and their ongoing negotiations regarding identity, nationality, and home. Proposing that these must be contextualized both in terms of the complexities of Panamanian politics and the global status of the country of origin, Siu makes a highly original contribution that illuminates the dynamics of cultural citizenship among 'new' and 'old' Asian immigrant populations in the Americas, as a whole.' -- Lane Ryo Hirabayashi, University of California, Riverside 'Lok Siu's investigation of the Chinese in Panama is a unique entry in the ongoing investigation of the broader, globally significant processes of migration. This work illuminates some of the major conceptual debates in contemporary scholarship. The author's theoretically informed thick description makes this manuscript sing.' -- Ien Ang, University of Western Sydney 'Lok Siu has written a fascinating story about the Chinese living in Panama, equally vulnerable to memories of home and the ruptures of nationalist politics. The notion of diasporic citizenship captures a kind of interstitial belonging shaped by cross-currents of culture and politics, most recently including ripples from emergent Asian powers.' -- Aihwa Ong, author of FLEXIBLE CITIZENSHIP, BUDDHA IS HIDING, and GLOBAL ASSEMBLAGES. .

Oxford University Press, 2011. Hardcover. New. This book examines the simple yet nebulous concept of âcommunityâ in relation to the notion of ârightsâ. The authors assert that these terms are problematic since the notions of identification, symmetry, totality, and unity often promote hegemonic and totalitarian actions, by both the state and the corporations, in the name of the community. These actions, however, do not conform to the traditional sense of community rooted in the local conditions governing social and biotic relations. This volume, therefore, seeks to understand community as a complex allegory for relational identities in their human, environmental, historical, and contextual fullness. T he authors go on to unravel the generally accepted notion of âhumanâ rights, which pays scant attention to the environmental conditions making humanity possible, and prioritizes individual rights over community rights. This privileging promotes the logic of neoliberal discourses of privatization and individual ownership through corporate entities. At the same time, the book also criticizes the privileging of the community in social practices that suppress and destroys individuals whose actions seem to challenge the notion of community values. The book proposes that a radical rethinking is necessary, in which the notion of rights does not depend on any privileging, but flows from the inter-connectedness and inter-dependence of the âindividualâ and the âcommunityâ in their complex relational dynamism along with multiple forms of relatednessâto the land, to other forms of life, and to inanimate beings.

In essence, this book explores the contingent citizenship experienced by diasporic Chinese and their efforts to imagine and construct home in diaspora.

MEMORIES OF A FUTURE HOME offers an intimate look at how diasporic Chinese in Panama construct a home and create a sense of belonging as they inhabit the interstices of several cultural-national formations -- Panama, their nation of residence; China/Taiwan, their ethnic homeland; and the United States, the colonial force. Juxtaposing the concepts of diaspora and citizenship, this book offers an innovative framework to help us understand how diasporic subjects engage the politics of cultural and political belonging in a transnational context. It does so by examining the interaction between continually shifting geopolitical dynamics, as well as the maneuvers undertaken by diasporic people to negotiate and transform those conditions. In essence, this book explores the contingent citizenship experienced by diasporic Chinese and their efforts to imagine and construct 'home' in diaspora 'MEMORIES OF A FUTURE HOME is a masterful ethnography, focusing specifically on the Chinese in Panama and their ongoing negotiations regarding identity, nationality, and home. Proposing that these must be contextualized both in terms of the complexities of Panamanian politics and the global status of the country of origin, Siu makes a highly original contribution that illuminates the dynamics of cultural citizenship among 'new' and 'old' Asian immigrant populations in the Americas, as a whole.' -- Lane Ryo Hirabayashi, University of California, Riverside 'Lok Siu's investigation of the Chinese in Panama is a unique entry in the ongoing investigation of the broader, globally significant processes of migration.

Oxford University Press, 2011. Hardcover. New. This book examines the simple yet nebulous concept of âcommunityâ in relation to the notion of ârightsâ. The authors assert that these terms are problematic since the notions of identification, symmetry, totality, and unity often promote hegemonic and totalitarian actions, by both the state and the corporations, in the name of the community. These actions, however, do not conform to the traditional sense of community rooted in the local conditions governing social and biotic relations. This volume, therefore, seeks to understand community as a complex allegory for relational identities in their human, environmental, historical, and contextual fullness. T he authors go on to unravel the generally accepted notion of âhumanâ rights, which pays scant attention to the environmental conditions making humanity possible, and prioritizes individual rights over community rights. This privileging promotes the logic of neoliberal discourses of privatization and individual ownership through corporate entities. At the same time, the book also criticizes the privileging of the community in social practices that suppress and destroys individuals whose actions seem to challenge the notion of community values. The book proposes that a radical rethinking is necessary, in which the notion of rights does not depend on any privileging, but flows from the inter-connectedness and inter-dependence of the âindividualâ and the âcommunityâ in their complex relational dynamism along with multiple forms of relatednessâto the land, to other forms of life, and to inanimate beings.

While the history of Asian migration to Latin America is well documented, we know little about the contemporary experience of diasporic Asians in this part of the world. Memories of a Future Home offers an intimate look at how diasporic Chinese in Panama construct a home and create a sense of belonging as they inhabit the interstices of several cultural-national formations—Panama, their nation of residence; China/Taiwan, their ethnic homeland; and the United States, the colonial force. Juxtaposing the concepts of diaspora and citizenship, this book offers an innovative framework to help us understand how diasporic subjects engage the politics of cultural and political belonging in a transnational context. It does so by examining the interaction between continually shifting geopolitical dynamics, as well as the maneuvers undertaken by diasporic people to negotiate and transform those conditions. In essence, this book explores the contingent citizenship experienced by diasporic Chinese and their efforts to imagine and construct home in diaspora.
