My research involves exploring mixed-race identity in the context of Japan. I am using Bakhtin's concept of chronotopes and Bamberg and Georgakopoulou's small story analysis framework to investigate identity construction of adults individuals.
I have lived in Japan for more than 20 years thus deploying ethnography in data collection and its further analysis.
My book chapter on "Haafu Identity in Japan: half, mixed or double" co-authored with Dr. McEntee-Atalianis can be accessed at the books.google.co.uk.
