As the site of crossings of colonizers, settlers, merchants, and goods, island nations such as Taiwan have seen a rich confluence of cultures, where peoples and languages were either forced to mix or did so voluntarily, due largely to colonial conquest and their crucial role in world economy. Through an examination of socio-cultural phenomena, Comparatizing Taiwan situates Taiwan globally, comparatively, and relationally to bring out the nation’s innate richness. This book examines Taiwan in relation to other islands, cultures, or nations in terms of culture, geography, history, politics, and economy. Comparisons include China, Korea, Canada, Hong Kong, Macau, Ireland, Malaysia, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa, the United States and the Caribbean, and these comparisons present a number of different issues, alongside a range of sometimes divergent implications. By exploring Taiwan’s many relationalities, material as well as symbolic, over a significant historical and geographical span, the contributors move to expand the horizons of Taiwan studies and reveal the valuable insights that can be obtained by viewing nations, societies and cultures in comparison. Through this process, the book offers crucial reflections on how to compare and how to study small nations. This truly interdisciplinary book will be welcomed by students and scholars interested in Taiwan studies, Sinophone studies, comparative cultural studies, postcolonial studies, and literary studies.

La gouvernance de plus en plus totalitaire du régime chinois se voit aujourd’hui fortement contestée, notamment en Occident. En revanche, la Chine, en tant que civilisation, fait l’objet d’une étrange complaisance. Et pourtant, le « système de crédit social », la volonté de « siniser » les religions, de « rééduquer » les peuples non hans comme les Ouïghours, l’obsession de la « pureté » idéologique, la lutte contre le « démon » de la pandémie ne se comprennent que si nous acceptons de regarder sans pudeur la culture chinoise et la façon dont elle imprègne la Chine contemporaine. C’est précisément ce que fait Emmanuel Dubois de Prisque dans ce livre. S’inspirant des travaux de René Girard, il montre que la politique chinoise obéit à des rites sacrificiels dont le souverain est à la fois le grand prêtre et la victime potentielle – des premiers empereurs jusqu’à Mao Zedong ou Xi Jinping. Ce faisant, il éclaire la part d’ombre de la Chine et en souligne les risques alors que cette dernière paraît bien décidée à imposer au monde ses propres normes culturelles face à un Occident affaibli et englué dans sa propre culpabilité. Emmanuel Dubois de Prisque est chercheur associé à l’Institut Thomas-More. Il a vécu au Japon et à Taïwan et travaille depuis presque trente ans sur le monde chinois. Il est l’auteur avec Sophie Boisseau du Rocher de La Chine e(s)t le Monde, aux éditions Odile Jacob.

This exciting, challenging book covers a wide range of subject matter, but all linked together through the key ideas of diversity and ‘Relation’. It sees our modern world, shaped by immigration and the aftermath of colonization, as a multiplicity of different communities interacting and evolving together, and argues passionately against all political and philosophical attempts to impose uniformity, universal or absolute values. This is the ‘Whole-World’, which includes not only these objective phenomena but also our consciousness of them. Our personal identities are not fixed and self-sufficient but formed in ‘Relation’ through our contacts with others. Glissant constantly stresses the unpredictable, ‘chaotic’ nature of the world, which, he claims, we must adapt to and not attempt to limit or control. ‘Creolization’ is not restricted to the Creole societies of the Caribbean but describes all societies in which different cultures with equal status interact to produce new configurations. This perspective produces brilliant new insights into the politicization of culture, but also language, poetry, our relationship to place and to landscapes, globalization, history, and other topics. The book is not written in the style conventionally associated with essays, but is a mixture of argument, proclamation, and poetic evocations of landscapes, lifestyles and people.

The Rebel is Camus's 'attempt to understand the time I live in' and a brilliant essay on the nature of human revolt. Published in 1951, it makes a daring critique of communism - how it had gone wrong behind the Iron Curtain and the resulting totalitarian regimes. It questions two events held sacred by the left wing - the French Revolution of 1789 and the Russian Revolution of 1917 - that had resulted, he believed, in terrorism as a political instrument. In this towering intellectual document, Camus argues that hope for the future lies in revolt, which unlike revolution is a spontaneous response to injustice and a chance to achieve change without giving up collective and intellectual freedom.
