REGARDING ANIMALS

ARNOLD ARLUKE, CLINTON R. SANDERS, AND LESLIE IRVINE

Second Edition

A new edition of an award-winning book that examines how people live with contradictory attitudes toward animals

e rst edition of Regarding Animals provided insight into the history and practice of how human beings construct animals, and how we construct ourselves and others in relation to them. Considerable progress in how society regards animals has occurred since that time. However, shelters continue to euthanize companion animals, extinction rates climb, and wildlife “management” pits human interests against those of animals.

is second edition of Regarding Animals includes four new chapters, examining how relationships with pets help homeless people to construct positive personal identities; how adolescents who engage in or witness animal abuse understand their acts; how veterinary technicians experience both satisfaction and contamination in their jobs; and how animals are represented in mass media—both traditional editorial media and social media platforms.

e authors illustrate how modern society makes it possible for people to shower animals with a ection and yet also to abuse or kill them. Although no culture or subculture provides solutions for resolving all moral contradictions, Regarding Animals illuminates how people nd ways to live with inconsistent behavior.

ARNOLD ARLUKE is a Professor of Sociology and Anthropology Emeritus at Northeastern University and a Senior Scholar at the Center for Animals and Public Policy at Tu s School of Veterinary Medicine. His books include Underdogs: Pets, People and Poverty (with Andrew Rowan), Just a Dog: Understanding Animal Cruelty and Ourselves (Temple), and Beauty and the Beast: Human-Animal Relations as Revealed in Real Photo Postcards, 1905-1935 (with Robert Bogdan).

MODEL MACHINES

A History of the Asian as Automaton LONG T. BUI

A study of the stereotype and representation of Asians as robotic machines through history

In the contemporary Western imagination, Asian people are frequently described as automatons, which disavows their humanity. In Model Machines, Long Bui investigates what he calls Asian roboticism or the ways Asians embody the machine and are given robotic characteristics.

Bui o ers the rst historical overview of the overlapping racialization of Asians and Asian Americans through their con ation with the robot-machine nexus. He puts forth the concept of the “model machine myth,” which holds speci c queries about personhood, citizenship, labor, and rights in the transnational making of Asian/America.

e case studies in Model Machines chart the representation of Chinese laborers, Japanese soldiers, Asian sex workers, and other examples to show how Asians are reimagined to be model machines as a product of globalization, racism, and colonialism. Moreover, it o ers examples of how artists and everyday people resisted that stereotype to consider di erent ways of being human. Starting from the early nineteenth century, the book ends in the present with the new millennium, where the resurgence of China presages the “rise of the machines” and all the doomsday scenarios this might spell for global humanity at large.

ETHICAL ENCOUNTERS

Transnational Feminism, Human Rights, and War Cinema in Bangladesh

ELORA HALIM CHOWDHURY

Illuminates how visual practices of recollecting violent legacies in Bangladeshi cinema can generate possibilities for gender justice

An exploration of the intersection of feminism, human rights, and memory, Ethical Encounters examines contemporary, woman-centered Muktijuddho cinema—features and documentaries that focus on the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971. Elora Chowdhury shows how these lms imagine, disrupt, and reinscribe a gendered nationalist landscape of trauma, freedom, and justice. She analyzes the Bangladeshi feminist lms Meherjaan, Guerilla, and Itihaash Konna, as well as socially engaged lms by activist- lmmakers including Rising Silence, Bish Kanta, Jonmo Shathi, and Shadhinota, to show how war  lms of Bangladesh can conjure a global cinematic imagination for the advancement of human rights.

Focusing on women-centric lms, and steeped in Black and transnational feminist critiques, Chowdhury engages shared histories, experiences, and identities in the region to encourage transnational solidarity among women across borders. Ethical Encounters reveals how Bangladeshi national cinema can foster a much-needed dialogue among ordinary citizens who have grown up with the legacy of liberty and violence of nationalist and anti-colonial struggles.

ELORA HALIM CHOWDHURY is Professor of Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies at the University of Massachusetts Boston. She is the author of Transnationalism Reversed: Women Organizing Against Gendered Violence in Bangladesh, which won the National Women’s Studies Association’s Gloria Anzaldúa Book Prize.

AFRICANA STUDIES

Theoretical Futures

EDITED BY GRANT FARRED

A provocative collection committed to keeping the dynamism of the Africana Studies discipline alive

As Africana Studies celebrates its ieth anniversary throughout the United States, this invigorating collection presents possibilities for the future of the discipline’s theoretical paths. e essays in Africana Studies focus on philosophy, science, and technology; poetry, literature, and music; the crisis of the state; issues of colonialism, globalization, and neoliberalism; and the ever-expanding diaspora. e editor and contributors to this volume open exciting avenues for new narratives, philosophies, vision, and scale in this critical eld of study—formed during the 1960s around issues of racial injustice in America—to show what Africana Studies is already in the process of becoming.

Africana Studies recognizes how the discipline has been shaped, changing over the decades as scholars have opened new modes of theoretical engagement such as addressing issues of gender and sexuality, politics, and cultural studies. e essays debate and (re)consider black and diasporic life to sustain, provoke, and cultivate Africana Studies as a singular yet polyvalent mode of thinking.

WHAT WORKERS SAY Decades of Struggle and How to Make Real Opportunity Now ROBERTA REHNER IVERSEN

Voices from the labor market on the chronic lack of advancement

What have jobs really been like for the past 40 years and what do the workers themselves say about them? In What Workers Say, Roberta Iversen shows that for employees in labor market industries—like manufacturing, construction, printing—as well as those in service-producing jobs, like clerical work, healthcare, food service, retail, and automotive—jobs are o en discriminatory, are sometimes dangerous and exploitive, and seldom utilize people’s full range of capabilities. Most importantly, they fail to provide any real opportunity for advancement.

What Workers Say takes its cue from Studs Terkel’s Working, as Iversen interviewed more than 1,200 workers to present stories about their labor market jobs since 1980. She puts a human face on the experiences of a broad range of workers indicating what their jobs were and are truly like. Iversen reveals how transformations in the political economy of waged work have shrunk or eliminated opportunity for workers, families, communities, and productivity. What Workers Say also o ers an innovative proposal for compensated civil labor that could enable workers, their communities, labor market organizations, and the national infrastructure to actually ourish.

WARRING GENEALOGIES

Race, Kinship, and the Korean War

JOO OK KIM

Examines the racial legacies of the Korean War through Chicano/a cultural production and U.S. archives of white supremacy

Warring Genealogies examines the elaboration of kinships between Chicano/a and Asian American cultural production, such as the 1954 proxy adoption of a Korean boy by Leavenworth prisoners. Joo Ok Kim considers white supremacist expressions of kinship—in prison magazines, memorials, U.S. military songbooks—as well as critiques of such expressions in Chicana/o and Korean diasporic works to conceptualize racialized formations of kinship emerging from the Korean War.

Warring Genealogies unpacks writings by Rolando Hinojosa (Korean Love Songs, e Useless Servants) and Luis Valdez (I Don’t Have to Show You No Stinking Badges, Zoot Suit) to show the counter-representations of the Korean War and the problematic depiction of the United States as a benevolent savior. Kim also analyzes Susan Choi’s e Foreign Student as a novel that proposes alternative temporalities to dominant Korean War narratives. In addition, she examines Chicano military police procedurals, white supremacist women’s organizations, and the politics of funding Korean War archives.

Kim’s comparative study of Asian American and Latinx Studies makes insightful connections about race, politics, and citizenship to critique the Cold War conception of the “national family.”

JOO OK KIM is an Assistant Professor of Literature at the University of California, San Diego.

ELUSIVE KINSHIP

Disability and Human Rights in Postcolonial Literature

CHRISTOPHER KRENTZ

Why disabled characters are integral to novels of the global South

Characters with disabilities are o en marginalized in ction, but many occupy central places in literature by celebrated authors like Chinua Achebe, Salman Rushdie, J. M. Coetzee, Anita Desai, Jhumpa Lahiri, Edwidge Danticat, and others. ese authors deploy disability to do important cultural work, writes Christopher Krentz in his innovative study, Elusive Kinship. Such representations not only relate to the millions of disabled people in the global South, but also make more vivid such issues as the e ects of colonialism, global capitalism, racism and sexism, war, and environmental disaster.

Krentz is the rst to put the elds of postcolonial studies, studies of human rights and literature, and literary disability in conversation with each other in a book-length study. He enhances our appreciation of key texts of Anglophone postcolonial literature of the global South, including ings Fall Apart and Midnight’s Children. In addition, he uncovers the myriad ways ction gains energy, vitality, and metaphoric force from characters with extraordinary bodies or minds. Depicting injustices faced by characters with disabilities is vital to raising awareness and achieving human rights. Elusive Kinship nudges us toward a fuller understanding of disability worldwide.

CHRISTOPHER KRENTZ is an Associate Professor at the University of Virginia with a joint appointment between the English Department and American Sign Language Program. He is the author of Writing Deafness: e Hearing Line in Nineteenth-Century American Literature and editor of A Mighty Change: An Anthology of Deaf American Writing, 1816–1864, as well as numerous articles about disability in literature and culture. He is currently director of the University of Virginia’s Disability Studies Initiative and helped found their American Sign Language Program.

JUST CARE

Messy Entanglements of Disability, Dependency, and Desire

AKEMI NISHIDA

How care is both socially oppressive and a way that marginalized communities can ght for

social justice

Just Care is Akemi Nishida’s thoughtful examination of care injustice and social justice enabled through care. e current neoliberal political economy has turned care into a business opportunity for the healthcare industrial complex and a mechanism of social oppression and control. Nishida analyzes the challenges people negotiate whether they are situated as caregivers, receivers, or both. Also illuminated is how people with disabilities come together to assemble community care collectives and bed activism (resistance and visions emerging from the space of bed) to reimagine care as a key element for social change.

e structure of care, Nishida writes, is deeply embedded in and embodies the cruel social order—based on disability, race, gender, migration status, and wealth—that determines who survives or deteriorates. Simultaneously, many marginalized communities treat care as the foundation of activism. Using interviews, focus groups, and participant observation with care workers and people with disabilities, Just Care looks into lives unfolding in the assemblage of Medicaid long-term care programs, community-based care collectives, and bed activism. Just Care identi es what care does, and asks: Are some people’s needs more sacred and urgent than others?

IT WAS ALWAYS A CHOICE Picking Up the Baton of Athlete Activism DAVID STEELE

Examining American athletes' activism for racial and social justice, on and o the eld

e recent ashpoint of Colin Kaepernick taking a knee renews a long tradition of athlete-activists speaking out against racism, injustice, and oppression. Like Kaepernick, Jackie Robinson, Paul Robeson, Muhammad Ali, Bill Russell, Tommie Smith, and John Carlos—among many others, of all races, male and female, pro and amateur—all made the choice to take a side to command public awareness and attention rather than “shut up and play,” as O. J. Simpson, Michael Jordan, and Tiger Woods did. Using their celebrity to demand change, these activists inspired fans but faced great personal and professional risks in doing so. It Was Always a Choice traces the history and impact of these decisive moments throughout the history of U.S. sports.

David Steele identi es the resonances and antecedents throughout the twentieth century of the choices faced by athletes in the post-Kaepernick era, including the advance of athletes’ political organizing in the era of activism following the death of George Floyd. He shows which athletes chose silence instead of action—“dropping the baton,” as it were—in the movement to end racial inequities and violence against Black Americans. e examples of courageous athletes multiply as LeBron James, Megan Rapinoe and the activist-athletes of the NBA, WNBA, and NFL remain committed to ghting daily and vibrantly for social change.

DAVID STEELE has been a professional sports journalist for more than 35 years. He has written for the Sporting News, AOL, the Baltimore Sun, the San Francisco Chronicle and Newsday, and has contributed to ESPN’s e Undefeated, USA Today and the NAACP’s e Crisis magazine. He is the co-author of Silent Gesture: e Autobiography of Tommie Smith (Temple) and of Four Generations of Color, the autobiography of pioneering baseball scout and sports agent Miles McAfee. He has won writing awards from the National Association of Black Journalists, the Association of Black Media Workers, the Associated Press Sports Editors and the Society of Professional Journalists.

WATER THICKER THAN BLOOD

A Memoir of a Post-Internment Childhood

GEORGE UBA

An evocative yet unsparing examination of the damaging e ects of post-internment ideologies of acceptance and belonging experienced by a Japanese American family

“I thought my life began in Chicago. I was mistaken. at is where my body rst made its appearance, but the contours of my life… had their start much sooner.”

In Water icker an Blood, poet and professor George Uba traces his life as a Japanese American born in the late 1940s, a period of insidious anti-Japanese racism. His beautiful, impressionist memoir chronicles how he, like many Sansei (and Nisei) across the United States, grappled with dislocation and trauma while seeking acceptance and belonging.

Uba’s personal account of his e orts to achieve normality and assuage guilt unfolds as racial demographics in America are shi ing. He struggled with inherently violent midcentury educational and childrearing practices and a family health crisis, along with bullying. Uba describes boy scouts and yogore (community rebels and casto s) with vivid detail, using these vignettes to show how margins were blurred and how both sets of youth experienced injury through the same ideological pressures.

Water icker an Blood is not a conventional story about recovery or family reconciliation. But it o ers an intimate look at the lasting—in some ways irreversible— damage caused by post-internment ideologies of “being accepted” and “ tting in inconspicuously.” It speaks volumes for the greater Sansei post-internment experience.

GEORGE UBA is an Emeritus Professor of English at California State University, Northridge, where he served as Chair of the Department of English and was a founding faculty member and Acting Chair of the Department of Asian American Studies. He is the author of Disorient Ballroom, a volume of poetry.

SCHOOL ZONE A Problem Analysis of Student Offending and Victimization

PAMELA WILCOX, GRAHAM C. OUSEY, AND MARIE SKUBAK TILLYER

Why some school environments are more conducive to crime than safety

Schools should be safe—but they are not always safe for everybody. Authors Pamela Wilcox, Graham Ousey, and Marie Skubak Tillyer studied crime among students located across diverse middle- and high-school settings to investigate why some students engage in delinquency—but others do not—and why some students are more prone to victimization. School Zone focuses on the three key interactional elements—context, victims, and o enders—to understand and explain the impact of common crimes such as the , weapon carrying, drug possession and the verbal, physical, and sexual harassment of classmates.

e authors also consider how individual students and schools respond to crime and threats. ey analyze the variables that schools can control in planning and practice that explain why some schools have higher crime rates. School Zone uses empirical studies to provide a comprehensive understanding of the patterns and causes of variation in individual- and aggregate-level school-based o ending and victimization experiences while also addressing the adequacy of wide-ranging criminological explanations and crime prevention policies.

In their conclusion, the authors assess the extent to which currently popular strategies of school crime prevention align with what they have discovered through their problem-analysis framework and scienti c understandings of student o ending and victimization.

ENGAGING PLACE, ENGAGING PRACTICES

Urban History and Campus-Community Partnerships

EDITED BY ROBIN F. BACHIN AND AMY L. HOWARD

How public history can be a catalyst for stronger relationships between universities and their communities

Colleges and universities in urban centers have often leveraged their locales to appeal to students while also taking a more active role in addressing local challenges. They embrace civic engagement, support service-learning, tailor courses to local needs, and even provide universitycommunity collaborations such as lab schools and innovation hubs. Engaging Place, Engaging Practices highlights the signifcant role the academy, in general, and urban history, in particular, can play in fostering these critical connections.

The editors and contributors to this volume address topics ranging from historical injustices and afordable housing and land use to climate change planning and the emergence of digital humanities. These case studies reveal the intricate components of a city’s history and how they provide context and promote a sense of cultural belonging. This timely book appreciates and emphasizes the critical role universities must play as intentional—and humble—partners in addressing the past, present, and future challenges facing cities through democratic community engagement.

BRINGING THE CIVIC BACK IN

Zane L. Miller and American Urban History

EDITED BY LARRY BENNETT, JOHN D. FAIRFIELD,

AND PATRICIA MOONEY-MELVIN

With a foreword by David Stradling

AcriticalappraisalofthecareerofZaneL.Miller, oneofthefoundersofthenewurbanhistory

With the passing of Zane L. Miller in 2016, academia lost a renowned scholar and one of the key founders of new urban history—a branch of the discipline that placed urban life at the center of American history and treated the city as an arena for civic and political action. He was a devoted, tireless mentor who published or fostered dozens of books and articles on urban history. He also co-foundedTemple University Press’ foundational series Urban Life, Landscape, and Policy

Bringing the Civic Back In provides a critical overview, appreciation, and extension of Miller’s work as scholar, editor, mentor, colleague, and citizen. Included are three excerpts from Miller’s fnal, unfnished work, in which he presented cities as the source of a civic nationalism he viewed as fundamental to the development of American democracy. The editors—along with contributors Robert B. Fairbanks and Charles Lester—refect on the life and work of their friend as well as his role in creating a Cincinnati school of urban history. These original essays by practitioners of Miller’s approach highlight the power of ideas to shape social change.

A GOOD PLACE TO DO BUSINESS

The Politics of Downtown Renewal since 1945

ROGER BILES AND MARK H. ROSE

How six industrial cities in the American Rust Belt reacted to deindustrialization in the years a er World War II

The “Pittsburgh Renaissance,” an urban renewal efort launched in the late 1940s, transformed the smoky rust belt city’s downtown. Working-class residents and people of color saw their neighborhoods cleared and replaced with upscale, white residents and with large corporations housed in massive skyscrapers. Pittsburgh’s Renaissance’s apparent success quickly became a model for several struggling industrial cities, including St. Louis, Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, and Philadelphia.

In A Good Place to Do Business, Roger Biles and Mark Rose chronicle these urban “makeovers” which promised increased tourism and fashionable shopping as well as the development of sports stadiums, convention centers, downtown parks, and more. They examine the politics of these government-funded redevelopment programs and show how city politics (and policymakers) often dictated the level of success.

AN EPIDEMIC AMONG MY PEOPLE

Religion, Politics, and COVID-19 in the United States

EDITED BY PAUL A. DJUPE

AND AMANDA FRIESEN

With a foreword by Robert P. Jones

Did religion make the pandemic worse or help keep it contained?

The pandemic presented religion as a paradox: faith is often crucial for helping people weather life’s troubles and make difcult decisions, but how can religion continue to deliver these benefts and provide societal structure without social contact? The topical volume, An Epidemic among My People explains how the COVID-19 pandemic stress tested American religious communities and created a new politics of religion centered on public health.

The editors and contributors consider how the virus and government policy afected religion in America. Chapters examine the link between the prosperity gospel and conspiracy theories, the increased purchase of frearms by evangelicals, the politics of challenging public health orders as religious freedom claims, and the reactions of Christian nationalists, racial groups, and female clergy to the pandemic (and pandemic politics). As sharp lines were drawn between people and their governments during this uncertain time, An Epidemic among My People provides a comprehensive portrait of religion in American public life.

CULTURES COLLIDING

American Missionaries, Chinese Resistance, and the Rise of Modern Institutions in China

JOHN R. HADDAD

Why American missionaries started building schools, colleges, medical schools, hospitals, and YMCA chapters in China before 1900

As incredible as it may seem, the American missionaries who journeyed to China in 1860 planning solely to spread the Gospel ultimately reinvented their entire enterprise. By 1900, they were modernizing China with schools, colleges, hospitals, museums, and even YMCA chapters. In Cultures Colliding, John R. Haddad nimbly recounts this transformative institution-building—how and why it happened— and its consequences.

When missionaries frst traveled to rural towns atop mules, they confronted populations with entrenched systems of belief that embraced Confucius and rejected Christ. Confict ensued as these Chinese viewed missionaries as unwanted disruptors. So how did this failing movement eventually change minds and win hearts? Many missionaries chose to innovate. They built hospitals and established educational institutions ofering science and math. A second wave of missionaries opened YMCA chapters, coached sports, and taught college. Crucially, missionaries also started listening to Chinese citizens, who exerted surprising infuence over the preaching, teaching, and caregiving, eventually running some organizations themselves. They embraced new American ideals while remaining thoroughly Chinese.

In Cultures Colliding, Haddad recounts the unexpected origins and rapid rise of American institutions in China by telling the stories of the Americans who established these institutions and the Chinese who changed them from within. Today, the impact of this untold history continues to resonate in China.

J OH N R. H AD DAD is Professor of American Studies and Popular Culture at Penn State Harrisburg. He is the author of The Romance of China: Excursions to China in U.S. Culture, 1776–1876 and America’s First Adventure in China: Trade, Treaties, Opium, and Salvation (Temple).

EDITED BY LINDA HO PECHÉ, ALEX-THAI DINH VO, AND TUONG VU

A multi-disciplinary examination of Vietnamese American history and experience

The large number of Vietnamese refugees that resettled in the United States since the fall of Saigon have become America’s fastest growing immigrant group. Toward a Framework for Vietnamese American Studies traces the ideologies, networks, and cultural sensibilities that have long infuenced and continue to transform social, political, and economic developments in Vietnam and the U.S.

Moving beyond existing approaches, the editors and contributors to this volume—the frst to craft a working framework for researching, teaching, and learning about this dynamic community—present a new Vietnamese American historiography that began in South Vietnam. They provide deep-dive explorations into community development, political activism, civic participation and engagement, as well as entrepreneurial endeavors. Chapters ofer new concepts and epistemological approaches to how legacy and memory is nurtured, produced and circulated in the Vietnamese diaspora.

Toward a Framework for Vietnamese American Studies seeks to better understand the rapidly changing landscape of Vietnamese American diaspora.

JUSTICE OUTSOURCED

The Therapeutic Jurisprudence Implications of Judicial Decision-Making by Nonjudicial Officers

EDITED BY MICHAEL L. PERLIN AND KELLY FRAILING

Examines the hidden use of nonjudicial o cers in the criminal justice system

Nonjudicial ofcers (NJOs) permeate the criminal justice and the forensic mental health systems in hidden ways. But what are the impact and consequences of non-lawyers and non- “real judges” hearing cases? Across the nation, numerous cases are outsourced to administrative and other NJOs to decide issues ranging from family court cases involving custody disputes and foster care, to alcohol, substance abuse, as well as mental health and institutionalization issues. Moreover, NJOs may also deal with probation sentencing, conditions of confnement, release restrictions, and even capital punishment.

The editors and contributors to the indispensable Justice Outsourced examine the hidden role of these nonjudicial ofcers in the courtroom and administrative settings, as well as the ethical and practical considerations of using NJOs. Written from the perspective of therapeutic jurisprudence by judges, criminologists, lawyers, law professors, psychologists, and sociologists, this volume provides a much-needed wake-up call that emphasizes why the removal of a judge weakens a defendant’s rights and dignity and corrupts the administration of justice. However, Justice Outsourced also suggests efective employments of NJOs, revealing the potential of therapeutic principles and procedures to enhance the practical knowledge supplied by nonjudicial decision-makers.

TEACHING FEAR

How We Learn to Fear Crime and Why It Matters

NICOLE E. RADER

How rules about safety and the fear of crime are learned and crystalized into crime myths— especially for women

Where do lessons of “stranger danger” and safety come from—and do they apply diferently for women? A genderfear paradox shows that although women are less likely to be victims of most crimes (sexual assault aside), their fear of crime is greater. Moreover, girls and women—especially White women—are taught to fear the wrong things and given impossible tools to prevent victimization. In Teaching Fear, Nicole Rader zooms in on the social learning process, tracing the ways that families, schools, and the media have become obsessed with crime myths, especially regarding girls and women.

Based on in-depth research and family studies, Rader reveals the dubious and dangerous origins of many of the most prominent safety guidelines that teach young girls to be more afraid of crime. These guidelines carry over to adulthood, infuencing women’s behaviors and the way they order their worlds, with dangerous consequences. As women teach their learned behavior and conditioned fear to others, gendered crime myths are recirculated from generation to generation, making them a staple in our society.

Teaching Fear includes suggestions for taking precautionary measures and crime prevention strategies. Rader also provides guidance for instilling safety values and demonstrating how we can “teach fear better” to break this cycle and truly create greater security.

GENDERED PLACES

The Landscape of Local Gender Norms across the United States

WILLIAM J. SCARBOROUGH

Reveals how distinct cultural environments shape the patterns of gender inequality

Every place has its quirky attributes, cultural reputation, and distinctive fair. But when we travel across America, do we also experience distinct gender norms and expectations?

In his groundbreaking Gendered Places, William Scarborough examines metropolitan commuting zones to see how each region’s local culture refects gender roles and gender equity. He uses surveys and social media data to measure multiple dimensions of gender norms, including expectations toward women in leadership, attitudes toward working mothers, as well as the division of household labor.

Gendered Places reveals that diferent locations, even within the same region of the country, such as Milwaukee and Madison, Wisconsin, have distinct gender norms and highly infuential cultural environments. Scarborough shows how these local norms shape the attitudes and behaviors of residents with implications on patterns of inequality such as the gender wage gap. His fndings ofer valuable insight for community leaders and organizers making eforts to promote equality in their region.

Scarborough recognizes local culture as not value-neutral, but highly crucial to the gender structure that perpetuates, or challenges, gender inequality. Gendered Places questions how these gender norms are sustained and their social consequences.

REFUGEE LIFEWORLDS

The Afterlife of the Cold War in Cambodia

Y-DANG TROEUNG

Exploring key works that have emerged out of the Cambodian refugee archive

Cambodian history is Cold War history, asserts Y-Dang Troeung in Refugee Lifeworlds. Constructing a genealogy of the afterlife of the Cold War in Cambodia, Troeung mines historical archives and family anecdotes to illuminate the refugee experience, and the enduring impact of war, genocide, and displacement in the lives of Cambodian people.

Troeung, a child of refugees herself, employs a method of autotheory that melds critical theory, autobiography, and textual analysis to examine the work of contemporary artists, flmmakers, and authors. She references a proverb about the Cambodian kapok tree that speaks to the silences, persecutions, and modes of resistance enacted during the Cambodian Genocide, and highlights various literary texts, artworks, and flms that seek to document and preserve Cambodian histories nearly extinguished by the Khmer Rouge regime.

Addressing the various artistic responses to prisons and camps, issues of trauma, disability, and aphasia, as well as racism and decolonialism, Refugee Lifeworlds repositions Cambodia within the broader transpacifc formation of the Cold War. In doing so, Troeung reframes questions of international complicity and responsibility in ways that implicate us all.

RICHARD III’S BODIES FROM MEDIEVAL ENGLAND TO MODERNITY

Shakespeare and Disability History

JEFFREY R. WILSON

HowisRichardIIIalwaysbothsohistorical andsocurrent?

Richard III will always be central to English disability history as both man and myth—a disabled medieval king made into a monster by his nation’s most important artist.

In Richard III’s Bodies from Medieval England to Modernity, Jefrey Wilson tracks disability over 500 years, from Richard’s own manuscripts, earlyTudor propaganda, and x-rays of sixteenth-century paintings through Shakespeare’s soliloquies, into Samuel Johnson’s editorial notes, the frst play produced by an African American Theater company, Freudian psychoanalysis, and the rise of disability theater. For Wilson, the changing meanings of disability created through shifting perspectives in Shakespeare’s plays prefgure a series of modern attempts to understand Richard’s body in diferent disciplinary contexts—from history and philosophy to sociology and medicine.

While theorizing a role for Shakespeare in the feld of disability history, Wilson reveals how Richard III has become an index for some of modernity’s central concerns—the tension between appearance and reality, the confict between individual will and external forces of nature and culture, the possibility of upward social mobility, and social interaction between self and other, including questions of discrimination, prejudice, hatred, oppression, power, and justice.
