Full Talk Title: Subjects and Sojourners: A History of Indochinese in France – A Book Talk by Charles Keith
Speaker: Charles Keith, Professor, Department of History, Michigan State University
Moderator: Lien-Hang T. Nguyen, Dorothy Borg Chair in the History of the United States and East Asia, Director of the Weatherhead East Asian Institute, Columbia University
Subjects and Sojourners is a vivid and comprehensive history of the two hundred thousand Indochinese who spent time in France, where they studied, labored, fought, and lived in imperial spaces and contexts that were profoundly different from the colony itself. It explores not only how time in France transformed these subjects and sojourners, but also how they transformed colonial society upon their return.
This event is hosted by the Weatherhead East Asian Institute.
