Surviving the City: The Chinese Immigrant Experience in New York City, 1890-1970 - Pacific Formations: Global Relations in Asian & Pacific Perspectives

This work explores the multifaceted Chinese experience in New York. The author argues that economic forces rather than racism influenced immigrants' life decisions and how, with the rise of an enclave economy in the 1950s, they began to make different choices.
