解説
Japanese Americans, particularly Protestant Japanese Americans, are usually seen as models of assimilation to American life. Using the rich archives of three Protestant churches in Los Angeles, this book paints a much more complex picture of the prewar Japanese American community in Los Angeles (the largest such community in the continental United States at that time). It makes it clear that what has been seen as evidence of assimilation (for example the learning of English) may have meant something very different to the people in question (such as a demonstration of the superior learning abilities of the Japanese). The author shows that among first-generation Japanese immigrants, there was a strong shift from assimilation aspirations in the 1920s, to nationalistic identification in the 1930s, a shift that was in some ways fostered by a growing adherence to evangelical Protestanism.
