Institutional trends such as demographic diversification, globalization, and transnationalism continue to make the U.S.
and Asian countries more politically, economically, and culturally intertwined and inter-dependent. Within this
context, this seminar asks the question, how have Asians and Asian American fit into this dynamic? The seminar will
use a multi-level perspective to look at how Asians and Asian Americans have been portrayed in different media and
popular culture throughout U.S. history.
