by Ethel V. Kosminsky (Author), Arthur Sakamoto (Foreword by)

In this book, Ethel Kosminsky studies the Japanese emigration to the planned colony of Bastos in São Paulo, Brazil in the early twentieth century. She explores the stories of Japanese immigrants who replaced the labor of recently-freed slaves on coffee plantations, and their descendants' return migration to Japan when the Bastos economy began to suffer in the late twentieth century. Using interviews and fieldwork done in both Bastos and Japan, Kosminsky integrates sociological, historical, political, economic, and ethnographic knowledge to analyze the consequences of these temporary labor migrations on the immigrants and their families.

Author Biography

Ethel V. Kosminsky has her PhD in sociology from São Paulo University and is an independent researcher.
