Transnational Identities on Okinawa’s Military BasesInvisible Armies /[electronic resource] :by Johanna O. Zulueta. - 1st ed. 2020. - XXI, 129 p. 3 illus.online resource.

Behind the Barbed Wire Fence -- Military Bases in East Asia: The Case of Okinawa -- Transnational Movements During the Occupation of Okinawa: Third Country Nationals and the U.S. Bases -- The “Other” Mixed Race: The Nisei in Perspective -- The Return to Okinawa: Capital, Networks, Mobility -- The Other Army: United States Forces in Japan Employees in Okinawa -- “Home is where the Heart is?” An Invisible Minority -- Future Trajectories: A Conclusion.

This book considers the role of civilian workers on U.S. bases in Okinawa, Japan and how transnational movements within East Asia during the Occupation period brought foreign workers, mostly from the Philippines, to work on these bases. Decades later, in a seeming “reproduction of base labour”, returnees of both Okinawan and Philippine heritage began occupying jobs on base as United States of Japan (USFJ) employees. The book investigates the role that ethnicity, nationality, and capital play in the lives of these base employees, and at the same time examines how Japanese and Okinawan identity/ies are formed and challenged. It offers a valuable resource for those interested in Japan and Okinawa, U.S. military basing, migration, and mixed ethnicities.
