Rather than view Japanese-Brazilian labor migrants and their families as somehow lost or caught between cultures, she demonstrates how they in fact find creative and flexible ways of belonging to multiple places at once. At the same time, the author pays close attention to the various constraints and possibilities that people face as they navigate other dimensions of their lives besides ethnic or national identity, namely, family, gender, class, age, work, education, and religion. 650 0 $a Foreign workers, Brazilian $z Japan. 650 0 $a Brazilians $z Japan. 650 0 $a Japanese $z Brazil. 650 0 $a Brazilians $z Japan $x Ethnic identity. 650 0 $a Japanese $z Brazil $x Ethnic identity. 650 0 $a Brazilians $x Employment $z Japan. 650 0 $a Japanese $x Employment $z Brazil. 650 0 $a Return migrants $z Japan. 651 0 $a Japan $x Emigration and immigration. 651 0 $a Brazil $x Emigration and immigration. 650 0 $a Migrant labor $z Japan. 650 0 $a Migrant labor $z Brazil. 650 7 $a Brazilians. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00838162 650 7 $a Emigration and immigration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908690 650 7 $a Foreign workers, Brazilian. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01729118 650 7 $a Japanese. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00981362 650 7 $a Japanese $x Employment. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00981372 650 7 $a Japanese $x Ethnic identity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00981373 650 7 $a Migrant labor. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01020711 650 7 $a Return migrants. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01748946 651 7 $a Brazil. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206830 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781498580373 830 0 $a New studies of modern Japan. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117024042.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2278BFCE78F711ECAF30597D2FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
