Beskrivelse af In Camps
"By foregrounding Vietnamese refugees in Malaysia, the Philippines, Hong Kong, and Guam, Lipman's careful multisited history, based on a transnational array of archives, will set the standard in English-language scholarship addressing a severe imbalance. This is at once a local, global, and transnational study of the dynamics around the vexed and shifting nature of refugee migrations."--Madeline Hsu, author The Good Immigrants: How the Yellow Peril Became the Model Minority "This work belongs in the literature of critical refugee studies currently reinvigorating our conversations as more and more people need asylum from the violence endemic to the deadly intersection between neoliberal globalization and sovereign state power (imperial or otherwise). Following Vietnamese refugees from an older war, what sets this book apart is its insistent immersion in the contingent possibilities of what refugees do 'in camps' at the very site of refugee containment."--Thu-Huong Nguyen-Vo, author of The Ironies of Freedom: Sex, Culture, and Neoliberal Governance in Vietnam "In this rigorously researched and crisply written book, Jana K. Lipman grapples with some of the most vexing questions of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. In Camps elucidates how actors in specific local contexts--particularly in the camps and countries of Southeast Asia that held Vietnamese people forced from home following the US-Vietnam War--deployed, interpreted, and challenged global forces of human rights regimes, enduring legacies of colonialism, and war's afterlife in the shifting geopolitical conditions of the Cold War and its end. It tells a crucial history we must remember in this era marked by the unprecedented numbers of migrants forced to move across ever more securitized borders."--A. Naomi Paik, author of Bans, Walls, Raids, Sanctuary: Understanding U.S. Immigration for the Twenty-First Century
