Genre in Asian Film and Television new Approaches

Edited by Felicia Chan, RCUK Fellow in Film, Media and Transnational Cultures, Research Institute for Cosmopolitan Cultures, University of Manchester, UK, Angelina Karpovich, Lecturer in Multimedia, Brunel University, UK and Xin Zhang, Independent Scholar

‘This is a welcome, necessary and indeed long-overdue collection

on Asian film and television, conceived on the basis of the highly original genres they either generated or creatively remodelled. The impressive array of specialised contributors, as well as the detailed textual and contextual analyses they undertake at each chapter, invariably stand out for their unique insights and sovereign independence from the usual paradigms provided by Western genres. This will be required reading for anyone interested in Asia and its formidable audiovisual output.’ - Lúcia Nagib, Centenary Professor of World Cinemas, University of Leeds, UK

Genre in Asian Film and Television takes a dynamic approach to the study of Asian screen media previously under-represented in academic writing. It combines historical overviews of developments within national contexts with detailed case studies on the use of generic conventions and genre hybridity in contemporary films and television programmes.

The Chinese in Britain, 1800 - Present economy, Transnationalism, identity

‘A reawakening, a rejection of infatuation with fashionable theories and concepts. The authors have

stayed close and true to the studies of Chinese diaspora...Thus, the book is a valuable contribution towards to the understanding of similarities and more importantly diversities among Chinese communities.’ - Yow Cheun Hoe, East Asia

This study points up the complex interplay of ethnic and national identities in the lives of Chinese in Britain, arguing that transnational studies reinforce essentialist conceptions of identity and cultural authenticity in diasporic communities, and thus frustrate the promotion of ethnic co-existence and social cohesion in multi-ethnic societies.

imperial endgame Britain’s Dirty Wars and the end of empire

Benjamin Grob-Fitzgibbon, Assistant Professor of History, University of Arkansas, USA

‘Grob-Fitzgibbon challenges the popular view that Britain shed its empire politely, like a tea party at the vicarage in an Agatha Christie mystery. Withdrawal from empire was difficult, dangerous and dirty and the politicians,

diplomats, soldiers and policemen who brought empire to an end did so in a way not brought out as powerfully and persuasively before. For anyone worried about how things might end in Iraq or Afghanistan, Grob-Fitzgibbon’s excellent, dispassionate, forensic analysis will make uncomfortable but illuminating reading.’ - Colonel Alex Alderson, MBE, Director of the United Kingdom Counterinsurgency Centre

In this fresh and controversial account of Britain’s end of empire, Grob-Fitzgibbon reveals that the British government developed a successful strategy of decolonization following the Second World War based on devolving power to indigenous peoples within the Commonwealth.

The Japanese effect inContemporary irish Poetry

Irene De Angelis, Researcher, University of Turin, Italy

‘De Angelis examines moments of illumination and influence in contemporary Irish poetry, exploring their Japanese sources, which stem either directly from Japanese forms and culture or from western Orientalist streams. Her acumen

is evident on every page, as is her grace of style and range of reference - from the oeuvres of Irish poets (Seamus Heaney to Sinéad Morrissey) to their archival sources to international poetry criticism. The Japanese Effect in Contemporary Irish Poetry evolves a discussion of influence between these two island cultures into an understanding of a poetic effect where haiku and Irish lyrics speak, Tokyo and Belfast overlap, and Hiroshima stains all history.’ - Joseph Lennon, author of Irish Orientalism: A Literary and Intellectual History and Director of Irish Studies, Villanova University, USA

The Japanese Effect in Contemporary Irish Poetry explores the post-Yeatsian legacy of the Irish-Japanese connection through an analysis of work by 12 poets from the early 1960s to 2006.

strategic Thinking about the Korean nuclear Crisis Four Parties Caught between north Korea and the united states

Gilbert Rozman, Musgrave Professor of Sociology, Princeton University, USA

‘Professor Rozman’s probing and insightful study of the interests and attitudes of ‘the other four’ countries in the Six-Party talks - South Korea, China, Japan, and Russia - makes clear why those talks have been so difficult but also why

they must remain a major element in dealing with North Korea and its nuclear weapons. His book is essential reading not only for everyone concerned about the challenges posed by North Korea but for anyone who wants to understand the complexity and necessity of multilateral diplomacy in today’s world.’ - David Straub, former State Department Korean Affairs Director

China, Japan, Russia, and South Korea have struggled to navigate between the unsettling belligerence of North Korea and the often unilateral insistence of the United States on how to proceed. This book focuses on their strategic thinking and internal debates over four stages of the crisis.

Edited by Sara C. Motta, Lecturer in Politics and Political Economy, University of Nottingham, UK and Alf Gunvald Nilsen, Postdoctoral Fellow, Department of Sociology, University of Bergen, Norway

contemporary social movements. This book shows how social movements in Africa, South Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East politicize development in an age of neoliberal hegemony.

This major comparative text examines what have been traditionally regarded as ‘world cities’ (New York, London, Tokyo) and a range of

Political Parties and electoralstrategy The Development of Party Organization in east Asia

Olli Hellmann, Lecturer in Asian Political Economy, School of Government and International Affairs, University of Durham, UK

'Olli Hellmann makes an important contribution to our understanding of political parties in East and South East Asia. Much of the existing work on parties in Asia has been limited to single

party or single country studies. In contrast, this volume applies western party theories to help understand party formation and change in four new democracies. This is the first study I have seen that adequately compares political party development in East and South East Asia. As well as being theoretically sophisticated, the study is also empirically very rich.' - Dafydd Fell, Senior Lecturer, Department of Politics and International Studies, School of Oriental and African Studies, UK

A study of processes of political party formation and change in new democracies. This book argues that to understand party organizations we need to focus on politicians’ electoral strategies. The framework is used to analyze political party development in the new democracies of East Asia (South Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Indonesia.)

emerging societies Development and inequality

Edited by Jan Nederveen Pieterse, Professor, University of Illinois, USA and Boike Rehbein, Director/Associate Professor, University of Freiburg, Germany

‘This original collection offers a novel perspective: that of emerging societies and global inequalities. It is comprehensive yet focused; comparative

yet cumulative; interdisciplinary yet cohesive. It presents a range of critical voices from and about the global South yet cautions that not all countries and sectors will benefit: only some capitalisms and communities will thrive as the BRICs supersede the dominance of the G-8.’ - Timothy M Shaw, Professor & Director, Institute of International Relations, University of the West Indies, Trinidad & Tobago ‘A remarkably coherent collection of impressive essays exploring both the opportunities and the dark consequences of globalization. Between them the chapters deconstruct the concept of development, show what it means in different contexts in different societies, and alert us to the dangerous in egalitarian consequences of unplanned growth. A most welcome contribution to the growing literature on globalization.’ - Bhikhu Parekh, Professor of Political Philosophy, University of Westminster, UK

In the setting of twenty-first century globalization this volume focuses on emerging societies, rather than emerging markets or powers. Adopting a sociological perspective, each chapter focuses on development and social inequality in emerging societies, with contributions from renowned international scholars.October 2011 272pp 216x138mm 19 b/w tables Paperback £19.99 978-0-230-35449-4
