Product Information
How did thousands of Chinesemigrants end up workingalongside African Americansin Louisiana after the CivilWar? With the stories of theseworkers, Coolies and Caneadvances an interpretationof emancipation that movesbeyond U.S. borders and theblack-white racial dynamic.Tracing American ideasof Asian labor to the sugarplantations of the Caribbean,Moon-Ho Jung argues thatthe racial formation of "cooliesin American culture and law played a pivotal role inreconstructing concepts of race, nation, and citizenship inthe United States.Jung examines how coolies appeared in major U.S. politicaldebates on race, labor, and immigration between the1830s and 1880s. He finds that racial notions of coolieswere articulated in many, often contradictory, ways. Theymarked the progress of freedom; they symbolized the barbarismof slavery. Welcomed and rejected as neither blacknor white, coolies emerged recurrently as both the salvationof the fracturing and reuniting nation and the scourgeof American civilization.Based on a wealth of archival research, this study makessense of these contradictions to reveal how American impulsesto recruit and exclude coolies enabled and justifieda series of historical transitions: from slave-trade laws toracially coded immigration laws, from a slaveholding nationto a "nation of immigrants, and from a continental empireof manifest destiny to a liberating empire across the seas. 9 halftones, 6 line drawings.

Reviews
"Breakthrough study... Coolies and Cane stands as an instructive study of race, Reconstruction, and Asian American history that points the way for further research." -- Walter T. Howard, Louisiana History, "In this important and well-researched work, Moon-Ho Jung argues that southern sugar planters looked to Asian 'coolies' to solve their labor problems after the Civil War." -- John S. W. Park, American Historical Review, "An ambitious book... A provocative invitation to reexamine our understanding of race in America in the 'age of emancipation.'" -- Gordon H. Chang, Agricultural History, "Brilliant and beautifully written... deserves a wide audience." -- Cindy Hahamovitch, Journal of American History, "Not only enriches the texture of Asian American, African American, and southem history, but also offers a global perspective on 19th-century labor migrations." -- Carol Huang, Journal of African American History, "Focusing on attempts to import Chinese contract labor to Louisiana sugar plantations in the decade after the Civil War, this book argues for the importance of the Chinese 'coolie' in the construction of race, nation, and citizenship in the United States." -- Adam McKeown, Pacific Historical Review, "Well researched study... These larger questions about race and labor are relevant not only for understanding the age of emancipation, but also for the current political climate of intensified debates on immigration and citizenship in the United States." -- Kathleen López, Journal of Colonialism and Colonial History, "This book is bound to be valuable for comparative purposes... It is also a welcome contribution to transnational approaches to American history." -- Ian Tyrrell, Labor History, "Thoroughly researched... Well organized and generally well written." -- Edward Rhoads, Agricultural History Review, "Well researched study... Lively portrayal." -- Kathleen Lpez, Journal of Colonialism and Colonial History, "Jung's work contains real passion... It will have substantial appeal for academic specialists and university libraries with collections in southern, agricultural, and labor history." -- Michael G. Wade, Journal of Southern History, ''An outstanding piece of scholarship and the most complete study of Chinese labor in the South. Through his meticulous research of a vast array of sources, Jung has managed to make a significant contribution to a number of overlapping fields: Asian American history, African American history, Southern history, labor history, race and ethnicity studies, and Diaspora studies. It is rare for one book to touch on so many fields!'' - K. Scott Wong, Williams College'', "The heart, strength, and originality of this riveting narrative rest in Jung's discussion of the debates concerning Chinese coolies among diverse sectors of white southerners... A model of the best of American history and, especially, studies of Asian American history and race and ethnicity." -- Evelyn Hu-DeHart, Journal of American Ethnic History, "Brilliant and beautifully written... Jung's slim volume makes it clear that coolieism was not a marginal issue. The debate over coolieism was bound up in the most pressing issues of the Civil War era, from the policing of the slave-trade ban to the redefinition of citizenship in the postwar South." -- Cindy Hahamovitch, Journal of American History, "Argues that coolies played an important role in the social construction of 'whiteness' in the United States... Thoroughly researched." -- Edward Rhoads, Agricultural History Review
