"Sweeping recent analysis of the Japanese in Peru by the nation's current leading scholar on the topic. The author directed the highly comprehensive community self-census in 1989 and edited the narrative record of that census, published in 1991. Offers useful background material on the Meiji era in Japan as a foundation for the immigration experience beginning in Peru in 1899. Effectively reviews various epochs of the settlement experience from plantation labor to urban commerce. After discussing the trauma of World War II and the cultural rebuilding of the postwar era, examines the generational tensions within the Japanese community and the question of nikkei (overseas Japanese) perceived cultural identity. The bibliography and statistical tables are helpful to specialists. Along with the Fukumoto study (see item #bi 00004005#), this analysis offers a nearly complete picture of the Japanese community in Peru through the late 1990s"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
