dc.description.abstractIn the following, I will present a comparison of the similarities between the immigration and settlement of Asians in Hawaii and the mainland United States. The predominant source of my research was Ronald Takaki’s book A History of Asian Americans: Strangers from a Different Shore. The reason for this is that I have discovered a correlation between the book’s chapters elaborating on the life of Asian immigrants working on the sugar plantations of Hawaii and those working on the mainland in different industries in the West Coast like the railroad construction sites, the gold mines, agriculture, and the service industry. Takaki claims that the situation of the Hawaiian workers was completely different from those of the mainland workers. In this presentation I am highlighting the similarities of the two groups and drawing a conclusion that there is a certain pattern according to which the process of immigration from the very arrival to settlement can be paralleled.hu_HU
