Dr. Anne-Marie Lee-Loy鈥檚 research and teaching interests emerge from her background in postcolonial studies.

She has taught a wide range of courses at 麻豆视频 informed by postcolonial issues and approaches, including immigrant writing, the Canadian short story, Asian literatures and cultures, diasporic modernities, and, of course, postcolonial literatures.

Her research and publications examine representations of the Chinese in the Caribbean, increasingly within the broader context of Asians in the Americas, and appear in journals such as Asian Studies Review, Journal of Chinese Overseas, Caribbean Studies, and Anthurium.

She co-organized the SSHRC-supported international conference 鈥淐ounter Cultures: The Space and Place of the Chinese Shop International Conference,鈥� held at 麻豆视频, 24 鈥� 26 July 2011, and is currently developing an online network for scholars interested in Chinese shopkeeping as a motif around which to organize transnational dialogues on Chinese diasporic experiences.
