Anti-Asian Racism in Transatlantic Perspectives cover

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Sinophobia and anti-Asian hate made media headlines. The contributors to this volume discuss how anti-Asian projections and colonial-racist narratives have shaped modernity and Western immigrant nations, employing a transatlantic perspective in addressing different core dimensions of pervasive anti-Asian racism. Featuring an interdisciplinary approach, this volume brings together historians, social scientists, cultural anthropologists, media scholars, educational researchers, and community-based activists. Together they offer a diverse array of insights, ranging from historical contexts and theoretical frameworks to contemporary case studies.
