Description
Summary:This historiographical essay discusses Asian migrations to Latin America from a Pacific World perspective and employs a longue-durée periodization. The Pacific World paradigm offers a path for studying the movement of people and ideas as multi-directional flows that impacted communities around the Pacific basin. The pre-1900 century timeframe similarly urges scholars to move beyond nation-bound narratives and to consider instead the long-standing cultural and ethnic ties that connected Asia and the Americas before the reification on national borders.
