Sumario:"Space-Time Colonialism: Alaska's Indigenous and Asian Entanglements" by Juliana Hu Pegues explores the complex relationships between Alaska Natives and Asian immigrants during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The book examines the discursive and material entanglements between these groups, as well as the processes of colonization, racialization, and empire. Through an analysis of historical periods such as the Alaskan purchase, the Gold Rush, the establishment of salmon canneries, and the World War II era, the author highlights the ways in which colonial notions of space and time shaped the experiences of Alaska Natives and Asian immigrants. The book emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary research and offers new perspectives on settler colonialism, racial justice, and decolonization.
