    Extractions: U.S. novelist Henry James once noted that it takes a lot of history to produce the flowering of literature. In that light, the speed with which new Asian American literature is surfacing might be considered a form of encapsulated history, an enthusiastic response from mainstream U.S. literary circles to the belated appearance of Asian Americans on the U.S. consciousness. At the same time, it suggests that the task of evaluation is both urgent and complex. Evaluation of a marginal yet emerging and rapidly transforming tradition should avoid definitive criteria drawn from different literary traditions. This does not imply that evaluation is not useful or possible. On the contrary, because emerging literatures are more conflict-situated, provisional and transitory, they must incorporate their own self-reflexive, interrogative, critical discourses in other words, a self-evaluation. A survey of the publishers' lists on Asian American writing shows that in the 1990s, this discipline became, to use a colloquial phrase, a "hot property." Its popularity in the early days of the new century can be generally linked to the success of the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s, to such African American authors as W.E.B. Du Bois of the early 20th century and Toni Morrison of more recent vintage, winner of the Nobel Prize for literature in 1994. Maxine Hong Kingston's The Woman Warrior (1978), the first Asian American work to receive wide acclaim, and Amy Tan's

    Extractions: Return to Chronology The pattern of immigration from South Asian countries has changed since 1965. For example, where once Sikh immigration predominated from India before that year, immigration from other parts of India became more widespread and settlement more diverse to countries of destination. As Dr. Labrack observed in his work, "South Asians" , in Our Cultural Heritage: A Guide to America's Principal Ethnic Groups . Greenwood Press, 1997, pp. (with permission) After 1965 the preeminence of California as the center of South Asian American Life declined, becoming only one of the eight popular destinations. By the 1990's eight major industrial-urban states located in the East (New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey), Southwest (Texas), mid-West (Michigan, Illinois, Ohio), and West (California) accounted for 70% of the U.S. South Asian population. This obviously reflects a distribution of the nation's industrial, university, service, and high-tech sectors of the economy in which engineers, scientists, academics, doctors and nurses would find employment. Within states there are preferred cities such as New York, Chicago, San Jose, Los Angeles/Long Beach, Washington, DC., and Houston. Overall, statistically the new immigrants appear intellectually, financially, and socially-accomplished. A profile of those born in India shows a relatively young, upwardly mobile population. Perhaps most dramatic when compared to the early immigrants, the socio-economic and educational portraits of India-born U.S. South Asians are a complete reversal of circumstances of their predecessor's first half-century.

    Extractions: Mission Asian American Studies provides critical interdisciplinary perspectives on the various histories of contact, migration, and settlement of Asian groups in the United States. "Asian Americans" compose a diverse collection of diasporic communities, and are becoming increasingly fractured along socioeconomic and geographic lines. In an era of U.S. global hegemony fueled by an increasing military and economic presence in the Pacific Rim, Asian American Studies plays a crucial role in analyzing and shaping economic, political, cultural, and international relations between Asia, the Pacific Islands, and the United States.
