Reviews
" Reinventing Citizenship is important for exploring the little-known differences and similarities between black welfare activists in Los Angeles and their Korean counterparts in Japan, and for its rare demonstration of the transnational ties that bound them. " -- American Historical Review, "A fascinating addition to the literature on the War on Poverty."-- Journal of American History " Reinventing Citizenship leaves the reader with the opportunity to question how contemporary efforts to address poverty and economic inequality might resonate within a transnational context."-- Law, Culture, and the Humanities Journal " Reinventing Citizenship is important for exploring the little-known differences and similarities between black welfare activists in Los Angeles and their Korean counterparts in Japan, and for its rare demonstration of the transnational ties that bound them."-- American Historical Review " Reinventing Citizenship is a work of solid research, whose comparative approach compels readers to think about state welfare and social movements in the late 1900s globally and expansively, something Americanists should do more in general."-- Pacific Historical Review, "This comparative study of community policies related to welfare and community participation is well organized, well writen, and well documented. The narrative moves along, not dwelling too long on one individual or organization, yet it also contains extremely apt quotations from policy makers and activists that vividly conveey their ideas. The attention to gender, female homemaker and male breadwinner, and contestations of that is equally efficient and well conceived, enriching the book. The influence of African Americans and their ideas on contestations over inclusion and welfare policies in Japan is equally compact and relevant." --Kathleen Uno, Temple University, " Reinventing Citizenship leaves the reader with the opportunity to question how contemporary efforts to address poverty and economic inequality might resonate within a transnational context." -- Law, Culture, and the Humanities Journal, "This comparative study of community policies related to welfare and community participation is well organized, well writen, and well documented. The narrative moves along, not dwelling too long on one individual or organization, yet it also contains extremely apt quotations from policy makers and activists that vividly conveey their ideas. The attention to gender, female homemaker and male breadwinner, and contestations of that is equally efficient and well conceived, enriching the book. The influence of African Americans and their ideas on contestations over inclusion and welfare policies in Japan is equally compact and relevant." --Kathleen Uno, Temple University
