Anchoring Boat People's History and Memory is an interdisciplinary study of the late-twentieth century "boat people" exodus from Vietnam and its contemporary remembrances in the global Vietnamese diaspora. Expansive and long-lasting, this exodus involved over one million people who fled from communist-controlled Vietnam by crossing the South China Sea in the two decades after the Vietnam War had ended in April 1975. Contestations over the history and legacy of this extraordinary migration persist as boat refugees resettled across the world memorialize their experiences in their own terms and in relation to other state and non-state entities involved in the exodus. At stake are claims to boat people's historical memories on local, regional, national, international, and transnational scales as well as distinct formations and negotiations of refugee identity, community, and culture across multiple geographies.

520 $a Anchoring Boat People's History and Memory is an interdisciplinary study of the late-twentieth century "boat people" exodus from Vietnam and its contemporary remembrances in the global Vietnamese diaspora. Expansive and long-lasting, this exodus involved over one million people who fled from communist-controlled Vietnam by crossing the South China Sea in the two decades after the Vietnam War had ended in April 1975. Contestations over the history and legacy of this extraordinary migration persist as boat refugees resettled across the world memorialize their experiences in their own terms and in relation to other state and non-state entities involved in the exodus. At stake are claims to boat people's historical memories on local, regional, national, international, and transnational scales as well as distinct formations and negotiations of refugee identity, community, and culture across multiple geographies.
520 $a Understanding "boat people/refugees" as a category shaped by a confluence of historical circumstances, legal determinations, lived experiences, politics, and ideologies, this two-part study recognizes Vietnamese boat refugees as historical actors, who have generated unique social, cultural, and political forms with lasting implications. The first part of the study narrates a history of the 1975-1997 exodus, bringing back into focus its causes and impacts on Vietnam, selected asylum and resettlement countries, and international refugee protection and humanitarian regimes. It further shows how overseas migration and asylum camp experiences deeply inform formations of refugee identity, community, and culture in transit and in diaspora. The second part of the study examines refugee-led remembrances of the exodus at the turn of the twenty-first century. These include endeavors to archive boat refugees' memories and ephemera, to revisit former asylum camps and renovate refugee burial sites in Southeast Asia, and to construct memorials to the exodus in Southeast Asia, North America, Western Europe, and Australia. Constituting refugee place-making practices and "memory activism"---grassroots efforts in constructing and promoting particular narratives of the past---such acts of remembrance enable Vietnamese boat refugees to negotiate alternative forms and sites of belonging as they stake personal, collective, political, social, cultural, and moral claims on the various geographies that they have traversed. Both powerful and precarious, these transnational efforts further highlight intra-diasporic linkages and reveal the historical, material, and constructed aspects of identity, community, culture, and collective memory.
520 $a Anchoring Boat People's History and Memory employs multi-lingual, multi-sited archival, ethnographic, material, and cultural research and analyses. It juxtaposes and interweaves refugee oral histories, writings, artifacts, photographs, songs, and landscapes alongside international news and governmental sources as well as data culled from ethnographic research conducted in Malaysia, Indonesia, the U.S., Germany, and cyberspace. Geographically and temporally expansive, this study departs from conventional war-, policy-, and U.S.-centric accounts of late-twentieth century Vietnamese emigration. It fills important gaps in historical and contemporary understandings of the significance of Vietnamese boat refugees and their migration experiences. Multiply situated, this study contributes to Vietnamese studies, Southeast Asian studies, Asian American studies, American studies, memory studies, forced migration studies, diaspora studies, critical refugee studies, ethnography, and material culture studies.
