Review # 1 was written on 2017-07-22 00:00:00 Gail Gordon Interesting juxtaposition of two categories that run the risk of being conflated in modern Feminist Studies: "women of color feminism" and "immigrant women's experience." She's able to do this thoughtfully by tracing shifts in political economy, thinking about the turn to globalization and flexibility of labor. Lit-heavy in a sometimes daunting way for non-specialists.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-03-27 00:00:00 Hope Rashell Sinclair This is an amazingly dense, but well-thought out look at how comparative racialization can reveal "ruptures" or contradictions in the national and local imaginaries and material realities. But in addition to this, Hong describes and performs a comparative historical methodology that can be applied in many different contexts.
