The Chinese in Canada

An account of the history and development of the Chinese-Canadian community. In this second edition, the author has expanded the original historical analysis to include changes that have taken place in the Chinese-Canadian community in recent decades. In addition to explaining how and why institutional racism developed against the Chinese, the author offers new insights as to why Canadian society continues to view Chinese-Canadians as foreigners, despite their occupational mobility and financial success. This book is intended for scholars and students of sociology, ethnicity, and Canadian studies.
