      abstract = {This book examines the Japanese diaspora from the  historical archaeology perspectivedrawing from  archaeological data, archival research, and often oral  historyand explores current trends in archaeological  scholarship while also looking at new methodological and  theoretical directions. The chapters include research on  pre-War rural labor camps or villages in the US, as well as  research on western Canada (British Columbia), Peru, and  the Pacific Islands (Hawaii and Tinian), incorporating work  on understudied urban and cemetery sites. One of the main  themes explored in the book is patterns of cultural  persistence and change, whether couched in terms of  maintenance of tradition, Americanization, or the formation  of dual identities. Other themes emerging from these  chapters include consumption, agency, stylistic analysis,  community lifecycles, social networks, diaspora and  transnationalism, gender, and sexuality. Also included are  discussions of trauma, racialization, displacement, labor,  heritage, and community engagement. Some are presented as  fully formed interpretive frameworks with substantial  supporting data, while others are works in progress or  tentative attempts to push the boundaries of our field into  innovative new territory. This book is of interest to  students and researchers in historical archaeology,  anthropology, sociology of migration, diaspora studies and  historiography. Previously published as a Special Issue in  the journal: International Journal of Historical  Archaeology "Special Issue: Charting the Emerging Field of  Japanese Diaspora Archaeology".},
