The monograph delves into ethnographically informed analyses of indigenous kin interactions within three Chinese diasporic households situated in the county of Los Angeles, California, USA. Employing an approach that views talk as a form of social practice, the book showcases diverse ways in which foreign Chinese parents and their American-born children orchestrate kin relationships indigenously.
Micro-analytically, the study highlights the social actions of membership categorization, attribution, deference, compliance, commands, and storytelling that unfold in kin interactions as crucial language devices to discuss the construction and deconstruction of epistemic asymmetry, power hierarchy, and harmony in Chinese diasporic social lives. Through illustrative examples, the monograph macro-analytically addresses the cultural stereotype of Chinese immigrant/foreign parents' style of parenting when they impart traditional Confucian ideologies in kin interactions.
This book serves as a valuable reference textbook for graduate courses that explore the intricate interplay between language, culture, and society. It provides a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the dynamics of indigenous kin interactions within Chinese diasporic households, shedding light on the complex ways in which language, culture, and social practices shape family relationships and cultural identities.
