Buddha Is Hiding

Refugees, Citizenship, the New America (Public Anthropology, 5)

1 edition

This work tells the story of Cambodians whose route takes them from refugee camps to California's inner-city and high-tech enclaves. We see these refugees becoming new citizen-subjects through a dual process of being made and self-making, balancing religious salvation and entrepreneurial values.
