This work argues that, far from being a negligible aspect of contemporary identity, racialized senses of belonging have often been the foundation of national identity in 20th-century East Asia. The construction of symbolic boundaries between racial categories has undergone many transformations in China and Japan, but this text shows how the attempt to rationalize and rank differences between population groups remains widespread. The historical background and contemporary implications ofthese potentially explosive issues are addressed by the contributors to this volume.

The story of how East Asians became "yellow" in the Western imagination—and what it reveals about the problematic history of racial thinking In their earliest encounters with Asia, Europeans almost uniformly characterized the people of China and Japan as white. This was a means of describing their wealth and sophistication, their willingness to trade with the West, and their presumed capacity to become Christianized. But by the end of the seventeenth century the category of whiteness was reserved for Europeans only. When and how did Asians become "yellow" in the Western imagination? Looking at the history of racial thinking, Becoming Yellow explores the notion of yellowness and shows that this label originated not in early travel texts or objective descriptions, but in the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century scientific discourses on race. From the walls of an ancient Egyptian tomb, which depicted people of varying skin tones including yellow, to the phrase "yellow peril" at the beginning of the twentieth century in Europe and America, Michael Keevak follows the development of perceptions about race and human difference. He indicates that the conceptual relationship between East Asians and yellow skin did not begin in Chinese culture or Western readings of East Asian cultural symbols, but in anthropological and medical records that described variations in skin color. Eighteenth-century taxonomers such as Carl Linnaeus, as well as Victorian scientists and early anthropologists, assigned colors to all racial groups, and once East Asians were lumped with members of the Mongolian race, they began to be considered yellow. Demonstrating how a racial distinction took root in Europe and traveled internationally, Becoming Yellow weaves together multiple narratives to tell the complex history of a problematic term.

THE EARLIEST TOCHARIANS IN CHINA: A HYPOTHESIS是同作者《古族新考》一书的英文版。《古族新考》曾于2000年由中华书局出版，2012年由商务印书馆再版。该部部分在国外的具体发表信息如下：“The Earliest Tocharians in China”, Sino-Platonic Papers Number 204, June, 2010, Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, 2 + 78 pp。吐火罗语文书的发现和对吐火罗语以及有关历史地理问题的研究，既是比较历史语言学界的大事，也是中亚学界的大事。盖自十九世纪末到二十世纪初，在我国西北地区出土的古文书残卷中，有若干以当时未知语言写成，其一即吐火罗语。给语言学家和历史学家提出了一系列需要解释的问题。特别是要先解释清楚：不管操吐火罗语的族群起源于何处，既然它很早就来到中国，应在中国史籍中留下足迹。换言之，他们究竟是以什么名称出现在中国史籍中的？本书就是作者根据史料所勾勒吴氏、陶唐氏、有虞氏的迁徒过程，构建关于“塞种”诸部渊源的假说，可以看成同作者《塞种史研究》一书的续编。
