Abstract
![CDATA[A commentary on the collection of essays bringing together a range of diverse and divergent histories, experiences, and practices of 'Asian diasporas' in a volume that gives astute insights into, among others, the gender politics of the Vietnamese homeland, the problematically racialized diasporic identities of Korean adoptees in the West, the ambiguous and shifting racialization and ethnicization of Japanese Brazilian migrants as the 'return' to Japan, the role of the Filipino state in the management of the labor diaspora of filipino seafarers, the contradictory experiences of 'legal' and 'illegal' filipina domestic workers in Taiwan, and the politics of religious ritual among Hindu and Muslim Indians in Trinidad.]]
