Produktbeschreibung

What happens when Japanese Americans, born and raised in the United States, are the ones living abroad in Japan? Redefining Japaneseness chronicles how Japanese American migrants to Japan navigate and complicate the categories of Japanese and "foreigner”. Jane H. Yamashiro tracks the multiple ways these migrants strategically negotiate and interpret their daily interactions.
