Asian Cultural Studies or Cultural Studies in Asia is a new and burgeoning field, and the Inter-Asia Cultural Studies Journal is at its cutting edge. Committed to bringing Asian Cultural Studies scholarship to the international English speaking world and constantly challenging existing conceptions of cultural studies, the journal has emerged as the leading publication in Cultural Studies in Asia. The Inter-Asia Cultural Studies Reader brings together the best of the ground breaking papers published in the journal and includes a new introduction by the editors, Chen Kuan-Hsing and Chua Beng Huat. Essays are grouped in thematic sections, including issues which are important across the region, such as State violence and social movements and work produced by IACS sub-groups, such as feminism, queer studies, cinema studies and popular culture studies. The Reader provides useful alternative case studies and challenging perspectives, which will be invaluable for both students and scholars in media and cultural studies.

This collection offers a range of cultural studies perspectives on the ways gender and modernity intersect in media produced in the Asia-Pacific region. It spans different ideas about modernity in the region, different approaches to cultural analysis, and different media forms: from Taiwanese lifestyle television to avant-garde Indian cinema, from the emergence of a Chinese youth culture in online social networks to the alienation of country girls as imagined by Australian soap opera, and from the fantastic politics of migrating bodies in Korean cinema to the masculine mimicry of fighting women in South-East Asian action movies. Together, these essays explore the ways that media both records and helps produce images and experiences of modernity and the integral role gender plays in those processes. This book was originally published as a special issue of Cultural Studies.

"Graeme Turner is one of the most remarkable figures in the world of cultural studies. He has helped to make and remake the field over the last twenty-five years. So when he sets his alarm clock - and it goes off loudly - we all know it′s time to pay attention. This extraordinary testament to what is right and wrong with cultural studies today will reverberate across the globe." Toby Miller, University of California This original, sharp and engaging book draws the reader into a compelling exploration of cultural studies in the twenty-first century. It offers a level-headed account of where cultural studies has come from, the methodological and theoretical dilemmas that it faces today and an agenda for its future development. In an age in which the relevance of cultural studies has been called into question, this book seeks to generate debate. Focusing upon the actual practice of cultural studies within the university today, it asks whether or not cultural studies has really managed to maintain a connection with its original political and ethical mission and comments on the strategies needed to regain the initiative. Written by a world class figure in cultural studies, each chapter supports and guides the reader by introducing the key issues, reviewing the relevant commentary and offering a critical conclusion of how each theme fits into a bigger picture. This timely and provocative consideration of cultural studies as a global discipline will be essential reading for academics and students working in the field for years to come.

Since the 1990s there has been a dramatic increase in cultural flows and connections between the countries in the East Asian region. Nowhere is this more apparent than when looking at popular culture where uneven but multilateral exchanges of Japanese, Korean, Taiwanese, Hong Kong and Chinese products have led to the construction of an ‘East Asian Popular Culture’. This is both influenced by, and in turn influences, the national cultures, and generates transnational co-production and reinvention. As East Asian popular culture becomes a global force, it is increasingly important for us to understand the characteristics of contemporary East Asian popular culture, and in particular its transnational nature. In this handbook, the contributors theorize East Asian experiences and reconsider Western theories on cultural globalization to provide a cutting-edge overview of this global phenomenon. The Routledge Handbook of East Asian Popular Culture will be of great interest to students and scholars of a wide range of disciplines, including: Cultural Studies, Media Studies, Communication Studies, Anthropology, Sociology and Asian Studies in general.

This book investigates the politics of identity in Asia and explores how different groups of people inside and outside Asia have attempted to relate to the alterity of the places and cultures in the region through various modes (literary and filmic representation, scholarly knowledge, and so on) and at different points in time. Although coming from different perspectives like literary criticism, film studies, geography, cultural history, and political science, the contributors collectively argue that Asian otherness is more than the dialectical interplay between the Western self and one of its many others, and more than just the Orientalist discourse writ large. Rather, they demonstrate the existence of multiple levels of inter-Asian and intercultural contact and consciousness that both subvert as much as they consolidate the dominant ‘Western Core-Asian periphery’ framework that structures what the mainstream assumes to be knowledge of Asia. With chapters covering a wealth of topics from Korea and its Cold War history, to Australia's Asian identity crisis, this book will be of huge interest to anyone interested in critical Asian studies, Asian ethnicity, postcolonialism and Asia cultural studies. Leong Yew is an Assistant Professor in the University Scholars Programme, National University of Singapore. He is the author of The Disjunctive Empire of International Relations (2003).

In this comprehensive volume, leading scholars of media and communication examine the nexus of globalization, digital media, and popular culture in the early 21st century. The book begins by interrogating globalization as a critical and intensely contested concept, and proceeds to explore how digital media have influenced a complex set of globalization processes in broad international and comparative contexts. Contributors address a number of key political, economic, cultural, and technological issues relative to globalization, such as free trade agreements, cultural imperialism, heterogeneity, the increasing dominance of American digital media in global cultural markets, the powers of the nation-state, and global corporate media ownership. By extension, readers are introduced to core theoretical concepts and practical ideas, which they can apply to a broad range of contemporary media policies, practices, movements, and technologies in different geographic regions of the world—North America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, and Asia. Scholars of global media, international communication, media industries, globalization, and popular culture will find this to be a singular resource for understanding the interconnected relationship between digital media and globalization.

編輯室報告第四期沒有專輯。兩杯蘭姆酒之後瞇起老花眼讀稿，奇！這些論文、書評、展評、報導之間竟然出現了編輯意圖不曾料到的連結。黃宗儀〈全球都會區的彈性身分想像〉在羅惠珍〈美麗城的步行者〉找到另類田野的筆記，台北與上海的連結置換成瀋陽與巴黎的連結，巴黎街角的「中國大姐」側錄了「跨國主體」、「彈性身分」、「離散華人」這些關鍵詞彙，「搭舖」成了「都會居住論述」的一個變調，敲出了王文華城市的蛋白質所缺乏的階級雜響。許雅斐〈性／別規範與仇恨犯罪〉也跟〈美麗城的步行者〉有著即興對奏，不僅牽涉性交易、性工作的主題，兩篇以不同角度展示了minor"的形象。台灣《兒童及少年性交易防治條例》裡政策管制的規訓對象，不僅是兒童少年，處於「防制／保護」規訓權力之下，所有公民都在「公益／危害」的假想對立之下處於潛在的「兒童少年」狀態，想想那些被抓到的「麻煩」藝人如何必須在鏡頭前哭泣悔罪的「未成年」形象！巴黎街角的「中國大姐」則呈現了德勒茲(Gilles Deleuze)所謂的"minorities"：不諳多數族群語言（法語）、非法居留、非法行業，都會街頭的游牧生活(nomads)，躲警察像躲貓的「遷徙／逃逸線」(lines of flight)。她們不僅僅是華人女性移民的情境，而是歷史上女性移民的一個重要形象，倫敦東區的東歐大姐、台北茶店裡被指為「假結婚真賣淫」的越娘、美西拓荒史的酒館吧孃、嚴歌苓筆下的《扶桑》、或許台灣移民史上的「唐山媽」，都是她們的姊妹故事，沒有必要像某些讀者將《扶桑》當作民族的悲劇，這全球女性移民歷史的大場景要比區區民族悲情來得壯闊豐富。林淑芬〈主權承認與見證〉，讓我們聯想〈美麗城的步行者〉可以輕易地構成台北當代藝術館「赤裸人」的延伸展項之一。外在於法律保護的「非法居留」已經是主權潛在的對待狀態，主權實現的形式，則是隨時可能的逮捕拘留與拒絕庇護的限期離境：deliasion
