positions: asia critique

Information

positions: asia critique offers a forum of debate for people concerned with the social, intellectual, and political events unfolding in Asia and within Asian diasporas. Profound political changes and intensifying global flows of labor and capital in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century are rapidly redrawing national and regional borders. These transformations compel us to rethink our priorities in scholarship, teaching, and criticism.
