{"product_id":"filipinos-in-canada-roland-sintos-coloma-9781442645400","title":"Filipinos in Canada: Disturbing Invisibility","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Philippines became Canada's largest source of short- and long-term migrants in 2010, surpassing China and India, both of which are more than ten times larger. The fourth-largest racialized minority group in the country, the Filipino community is frequently understood by such figures as the victimized nanny, the selfless nurse, and the gangster youth. On one hand, these narratives concentrate attention, in narrow and stereotypical ways, on critical issues. On the other, they render other problems facing Filipino communities invisible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis landmark book, the first wide-ranging edited collection on Filipinos in Canada, explores gender, migration and labour, youth spaces and subjectivities, representation and community resistance to certain representations. Looking at these from the vantage points of anthropology, cultural studies, education, geography, history, information science, literature, political science, sociology, and women and gender studies, \u003cem\u003eFilipinos in Canada\u003c\/em\u003e provides a strong foundation for future work in this area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roland Sintos Coloma,Bonnie McElhinny,Ethel Tungohan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1442645407\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781442645400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/18\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 464\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 1.30d","brand":"Roland Sintos Coloma","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065597899007,"sku":"9781442645400","price":111.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7cea8496-d5e0-4670-9dbc-8f0adf5fe2da.jpg?v=1768676031","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/filipinos-in-canada-roland-sintos-coloma-9781442645400","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
