NGUYEN Vu Hoang is an anthropologist specializing in the Vietnamese diaspora and cultural dynamics in Southeast Asia. He received his Master's degree in Social and Cultural Anthropology from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and a Ph.D. in Anthropology from the University of Toronto. His doctoral research, which forms the basis for this book, is a landmark study on the complex relationship between Vietnamese Americans and their homeland. Dr. Nguyen's work provides a compelling analysis of the Vietnamese people's experience in New Orleans following the Vietnam War. Drawing on extensive fieldwork, he critically examines how this community navigated a racialized society, revealing a nuanced perspective on identity, racial stereotypes, and conformity to the broader "white racial frame" in the United States.

Before his current role as Deputy Dean of the Department of Anthropology and Religious Studies at the VNU University of Social Sciences and Humanities in Hanoi, Dr. Nguyen held research positions at the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology (2005-2019) and the Institute of Cultural Studies (2019-2020). There, he contributed to the museum's collections by conducting extensive fieldwork across Indonesia, Brunei, and Laos. Dr. Nguyen is an active scholar who looks forward to collaborating with researchers worldwide.
