EAST 260 - Colonialism/Post-Colonialism and Globalization in East Asia 3 SS, CD
Second Semester. This course will explore the nature of colonialism (and semi-colonialism), modernity and post-modernity in East Asia and the dialectical relationship between these processes. It begins with an interrogation of the recent writings on post-colonialism in order to question the dominance that this discursive paradigm has had on the construction of identities, cultures and politics of non-Western societies, with a particular focus on Japan, China and Korea. The course will then interrogate alternative forms of modernity and post-modernity in East Asia. Topics to be discussed will include globalization, regionalism, transnational identities and politics, and gender.
