Description:Intersectional Lives explores the lives of contemporary Chinese Australian women and how their everyday experiences have played out in diverse and uneven ways across time and place. Interrogations of personal reflections are coupled with a postcolonial feminist reading of official records, demonstrating that the women's varied experiences as migrants, mothers, daughters, wives, students, workers, business owners and cultural custodians are influenced by their multiple and fluid identities. This book offers new ways to conceptualize Chinese women in the diaspora as gendered, classed, culturally varied and racialized individuals with multiple identifications, forms of agency and mobility. It offers a revision of patriarchal understandings of Chinese Australian history and broader understandings of overseas Chinese migrations and settlement experiences. It also demonstrates how historical geography, informed by postcolonial feminist approaches, can facilitate more nuanced understandings of past (and present) times and places that include women's diverse experiences at a variety of scales. This book will appeal to social and cultural geographers with additional audiences of interest in ethnic and racial studies, gender studies, diaspora studies, migration studies, gender and feminist studies.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
