A Discontented Diaspora: Japanese Brazilians and the Meanings of Ethnic Militancy, 1960–1980
“A Discontented Diasporais the best work that I have read on the people of Japanese descent in Latin America, bar none. Jeffrey Lesser’s research does no less than create a whole new vocabulary for the study of evolvingNikkeipersonal, artistic, and political identities. This is a book that I wish I had written.”—Lane Hirabayashi, senior editor ofNew Worlds, New Lives: Globalization and People of Japanese Descent in the Americas and from Latin America in Japan
