Section Info: Description: The Twentieth-first Century is increasingly hailed by political commentators and historians as the “Asian Century” and the “Chinese Century.” The re-emergence of China as an economic and political power in the closing decades of the last century has created strong interests as well as concerns about a world in which one dominating power is an East Asian country. Deep-rooted stereotypes and uninformed speculations have further bewildered and troubled scholars and the public in the West about the reasons for the miraculous rise of China and the implications of its ascendancy for the world. How China and Japan developed into great powers as they did after WWII and the Cold War calls for a better understanding of the past of these two countries. We will explore issues of critical importance to our understanding of East Asian cultures and history from contemporary perspectives: issues such as identity formation, gender and women’s experience, power and knowledge production, racism, as well as imperialism, etc.
