Trans-Asia as Method [EPUB ebook] 
Theory and Practices

This rich collection of essays offers a multi- and inter-disciplinary discussion of trans-Asia approaches from critical theory, historical studies, cultural studies to film studies. In doing so the authors lay down the groundwork for a more inclusive knowledge-production and fruitful transnational collaboration. The authors engage with the implications of ’;trans-Asia’ using a range of empirical cases. At the heart of the book is a desire and attempt to give a grounded understanding of what ’;trans-Asia’ approaches are by examining human mobilities, media culture flows and connections across Asia and beyond in four key aspects: cross-border flows and connections; inter-Asian comparison and referencing; transnational and de-nationalized approaches; and cross-border collaboration.
