Abstract
Asian American historians are complicating, broadening, and deepening the history of Asian immigration to the United States and elsewhere. New archival sources, theoretical frameworks, and methodologies have changed the questions historians are asking, where they are doing their research, and the focus of their inquiries. This essay examines some of these new directions. New definitions of migration and migrants and broader chronological and geographical frameworks have expanded the study of Asian American immigration history across time and space. Closer attention to race, ethnicity, class, and gender and sexuality has complicated our understandings of Asian immigrant families, communities, and interethnic and interracial relations. Recent scholarship has focused significantly on recent immigrant and refugee communities, the use of Asian-language sources, and the centrality of transnational, diasporic, and global perspectives. Historians have successfully pushed the boundaries of Asian American immigration history in new ways, contributing to a richer understanding of Asian Americans generally.
