About This Project
The Politics of Display: Transnational Convergence in the Chinese Nationality Room is Karen Lue's senior honors thesis in the Department of History of Art & Architecture at the University of Pittsburgh. This online exhibition, created in lieu of a traditional thesis paper, encompasses all original research using primarily the Chinese Nationality Room Files in the University of Pittsburgh's Archives Service Center, as well as numerous secondary sources on Chinese immigrant history in the U.S. and Chinese political history in the late 19th - early 20th century.
