Symposium: Asian American Americans and the New Minority Politics Symposium: Asian American Americans and the New Minority Politics PS, September 2001

Data from the 2000 U.S. Census show that the population of Asian Americans in the United States had grown to over 10 million. As a segment of the U.S. population, their growing in political strength and activism is something of keen interest to political scientists. With Andrew Aoki serving as a guest editor, PS offered this Symposium of six articles by scholars exploring the realm of Asian American politics.
