Synopsis

本書作者以發表的各種文本為基礎，法拉盛現代社會經濟、商業、政治和文化等各層面及其關係為框架，較為深入地探討了法拉盛這一移民社會，尤其是蓬勃發展的華人社區。作者採用作、述交叉的動態寫作方式，呈現法拉盛社會的概況，並以美國社會整體面貌為背景，因而對當代移民社會、美國華人發展歷史，尤其是紐約華人社會，以及所涉及的族裔、政治等議題的進一步研究，提供了有啟發的思考和系統整理的資料。本書是繼《顧雅明傳》《法拉盛故事》之後又一部關於法拉盛歷史、現狀和人物的著作，是了解法拉盛不可或缺的參考資料。本書的作者羅慰年、邱辛曄是上世紀八、九十年代來美的華裔美國移民，在法拉盛生活多年，並在當地從事教育和文化工作。從2016年起動筆的這本著作，歷時三年完成，約三十萬字。 The Biography of Flushing is a sociological study based on published resources and historical documents.
