Link: http://bulletin.georgetown.edu/ Asian American Studies Proposal 2 Name . Asian American Studies Major Description “The Asian American Studies curriculum examines, across the disciplines, the past and present positions of Asian primarily in the United States. Its methods and theories draw from allied fields such as ethnic, women’s queer, critical, and Asian Area studies, as well as from disciplines across the humanities and social sciences. Its subject matter is as capacious as the “Orient” and the naming, classifying, and ranking of those peoples, lands, and waters by Europeans, and Asian engagements with those discursive constructs and material realities. The United States, although simply one site of those global relations, figures prominently within Asian American studies, and in turn the field claims an apprehension of the nation-state from the perspective of the Asian American experience. Importantly, thus, Asian American studies enables explanations of majority-minority relations, interactions among peoples of color, and the intersections of racial and other social formations in the U.S., in effect, “American” studies, along with the transnational concentrations and flows of capital, labor, and culture. The program’s curriculum builds upon the foundational course Introduction to Asian American Studies, which surveys the methodologies and theories central to the field of study, offers a critical analysis of key concepts and texts, and provides a historical overview of Asians in the Americas. Asian American subjectivities are explored in introductory courses on Asian American literatures and cultures and on diasporic and transnational communities and social formations. Advanced course on gender and sexuality, Asian American women, race and media, and Asian American immigration allow students to deepen their understanding of Asian Americans and their social locations.”* *Description modified from Columbia University. http://www.college.columbia.edu/bulletin/depts/asia_amer_studies.php 3 Undergraduate All undergraduates seeking to complete a course of study majoring in Requirements Asian American Studies are expected to complete a minimum of 33 credit hours and eleven courses.

Rather, the current social formation entails a subject less narrated by the modern discourse of citizenship and more narrated by the histories of wars in Asia, immigration and the Sciences dynamics of the current global economy.” (Lowe 1996) “Migrations do not just happen; they are produced. And migrations do not involve just any possible combination of countries; they are patterned.”(Sassen 1998) “Transnationalism represents a novel perspective, not a novel phenomenon.” (Portes 2003) Course Description: Enormous social transformations have occurred in America in the last four decades—the consequence of global economic restructuring and new immigration. This survey course will introduce new frameworks for understanding these changes in post- modern Asian Pacific American communities. Readings and discussion will focus on the transnational aspects of a wide range of historical and contemporary topics in the context of Asia/Asian American experience. We will utilize theories of transnationalism and Asian American political and racial history. Linkages will be built between the roots of social constructions of race, and the multi-sited social processes that now constitute a globalizing Asian America. Much of the assigned reading is theoretical. A background in Asian Pacific American social and legal history is highly recommended. Open to Juniors and Seniors. Course Requirements: This is not just a lecture class but also an analytical discussion. You are expected to keep up with course readings and come prepared to ALSO talk about the readings and related topics. There will be an in-class midterm, two 1-page critical response papers and in lieu of a final exam, a final essay of 6-7 pages. Essay length DOES NOT include 4 bibliographic sources. We will discuss essay topics in class and each of you will come talk to me about your topic. Class assignments will be submitted on line through Moodle. Late papers will be graded accordingly. Writing skills are important in this class. In each essay and response paper, good, clear writing is required as well as a demonstrated understanding of issues. Failure to competently construct your arguments, such as a lack of a clearly stated essay topic and supporting statements, spelling errors, poor punctuation and other grammatical mistakes that make your essays unreadable will be graded accordingly.

  • Asian American Studies Self Study
    Asian American and Transnational Asian Studies: Self Study By Morgan Pitelka and Heidi Kim Section One: Overview Why Asian American and Transnational Asian Studies? Asian American Studies emerged out of the Civil Rights Movement and the growing interest of diverse ethnic populations here in the U.S. in their unique, but also shared, experiences and political challenges. The interdisciplinary approach to studying the history, culture, and experiences of Asian Americans, and the ongoing migration of people from Asia to the U.S. (as well as to other parts of the world), is as salient today as it was in the 1960s and 70s. The population of Asian and Asian American students at UNC has grown to the point that today it is the largest minority group on campus. At the same time, the growing awareness of the great diversity within this population, in terms of heritage, language, and social and economic outcomes, is a reminder that Asian Americans defy stereotypes and need to be understood within larger global flows and specific American historical contexts. For Asian and Asian American students, too, opportunities to study the history and culture of these populations within the larger sweep of American and global history is vital to understanding what diversity actually means in the complex and evolving racial history of this country. Asian American and Transnational Asian Studies today is thus a vital component of the university’s focus on fields such as American Studies, Asian Studies, Global Studies, International Relations, Critical Race Studies and Cultural Studies. Asian American and Transnational Asian Studies is a field that allows us to explore the links between uniquely American stories of the trials and tribulations of individuals and families, as well as the larger global networks within which they are nested.

  • Transnational Asian American Literature: Sites and Transits Does Not Set out to Reject a U.S
    P1: OTE/SPH P2: OTE GRBT094-Lim November 19, 2005 6:24 Introduction Shirley Geok-lin Lim, John Blair Gamber, Stephen Hong Sohn, and Gina Valentino Transnational Asian American Literature: Sites and Transits does not set out to reject a U.S. nation location for Asian American writing. Rather, this collection of essays sees the nation-formation themes, often intrinsically tied to language strategies and formal features, as one subject rising from a set of historical dynamics that traverse and explain the col- lective body of Asian American literature. A second set of dynamics comes from the diasporic, mobile, transmigratory nature of Asian American ex- perience, a history characterized by disparate migratory threads, unset- tled and unsettling histories churned by multiple and different Asian eth- nic immigrant groups each with a different language and cultural stock, different value and belief systems, and different notions of literary aes- thetics, albeit most largely mediated through the English language. This continuous narrative of Asian American entry, reentry, expulsion, remi- gration, and movement across and between borders, what Aihwa Ong (1999) had partly captured in the phrase “flexible citizenship,” which nonetheless does not successfully express the open-ended and sometimes exhausting nature of “temporary” societies and characters. These “im- migrant” subjects are not always fugitive and furtive like the manong in Bulosan’s America Is in the Heart (1946), or queer as in Lawrence Chua’s Gold by the Inch (1998). In our use of the phrase “sites and transits” in the volume’s title, “site” also denotes attitudes and postures, the ar- rested moment of identity in a place and time, while “transit” denotes, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, that “instance of passing or journeying across.” A transit is also the passage of a celestial body over the meridian of a place or through the field of a telescope.

Corinna Lee (cl352) 282 Goldwin Smith (Thurs) Office hours: R – 2:00-3:00 427 Rockefeller Introduction to Asian American Studies AAS 1100 – Spring 2010 Tuesday/Thursday 10:10-11:25 What’s in a name? For starters, the contemporary term “Asian Pacific American” has been taxed to hold together in a classificatory embrace a complex, diverse, and rapidly changing population of people of Asian/Pacific descent in the Americas. In this course, we’ll track the ongoing adventures of this term “Asian Pacific American” and try to understand how the social and political twists and turns in meaning over the course of its historical journey come to shape individual and collective identities. This interdisciplinary course will introduce students to key ideas and issues in the study of Asian American histories, cultures, and racial formation including, for example, matters of migration, social/cultural/legal citizenship, social movements and cultural politics. Materials for the course will include film, literature, historical and sociological essays, and mass media and popular culture productions. Course Requirements 1. Class attendance and participation (20%). Attendance is mandatory. Students are required to do the assigned readings and to formulate two questions on the basis of the readings for each class. You must post these questions to an electronic discussion board no later than 8:00 p.m. of the evening before the class session dedicated to those readings.
