Title: Memories of a future home
First published: 2006
Description: "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."--Jacket.
