ISBN: 9781842779484 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Despite the increasing importance of the concept of "diaspora" and its widespread use in academic case studies and in the self-description of a number of minority communities and networks, the subject has received relatively little general scholarly treatment.

Searching for Home Abroad: Japanese Brazilians and Transnationalism
ISBN: 9780822331483 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the first half of the twentieth century, Japanese immigrants entered Brazil by the tens of thousands.

The contributors who represent a number of nationalities and disciplines themselves analyze how the original Japanese immigrants, their...

A Discontented Diaspora: Japanese Brazilians and the Meanings of Ethnic Militancy, 1960-1980
ISBN: 9780822340812 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In A Discontented Diaspora, Jeffrey Lesser investigates broad questions of ethnicity, the nature of diasporic identity, and Brazilian culture.

Believing that their own regional identity should be the national one, residents of Sao Paulo constantly discussed the relationship between...

Welcoming the Undesirables: Brazil and the Jewish Question
ISBN: 9780520084131 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Jeffrey Lesser's invaluable book tells the poignant and puzzling story of how earlier this century, in spite of the power of anti-Semitic politicians and intellectuals, Jews made their exodus to Brazil, "the land of the future." What motivated the Brazilian government, he asks, to create a secret ban on Jewish entry in 1937 just as Jews desperately sought refuge from Nazism? And why, just one year later, did more Jews enter Brazil legally than ever before? The answers lie in the Brazilian elite's radically contradictory images of Jews and the profound effect of these images on Brazilian...

Immigration, Ethnicity, and National Identity in Brazil, 1808 to the Present
ISBN: 9780521145350 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Immigration, Ethnicity, and National Identity in Brazil, 1808 to the Present examines the immigration to Brazil of millions of Europeans, Asians, and Middle Easterners beginning in the nineteenth century. Jeffrey Lesser analyzes how these newcomers and their descendents adapted to their new country and how national identity was formed as they became Brazilians along with their children and grandchildren. Lesser argues that immigration cannot be divorced from broader patterns of Brazilian race relations, as most immigrants settled in the decades surrounding the final abolition of slavery in...
