Kuan-Hsing Chen is a professor in the Institute for Social Research and Cultural Studies at Chiao Tung University in Taiwan. He has written and edited many books in Chinese. He is co-executive editor of the journal Inter-Asia Cultural Studies.
Centering his analysis in the dynamic forces of modern East Asian history, Kuan-Hsing Chen recasts cultural studies as a politically urgent global endeavor. He argues that the intellectual and subjective work of decolonization begun across East Asia after the Second World War was stalled by the cold war. At the same time, the work of deimperialization became impossible to imagine in imperial centers such as Japan and the United States. Chen contends that it is now necessary to resume those tasks, and that decolonization, deimperialization, and an intellectual undoing of the cold war must proceed simultaneously. Combining postcolonial studies, globalization studies, and the emerging field of “Asian studies in Asia,” he insists that those on both sides of the imperial divide must assess the conduct, motives, and consequences of imperial histories.
Chen is one of the most important intellectuals working in East Asia today; his writing has been influential in Taiwan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and mainland China for the past fifteen years. As a founding member of the Inter-Asia Cultural Studies Society and its journal, he has helped to initiate change in the dynamics and intellectual orientation of the region, building a network that has facilitated inter-Asian connections. Asia as Method encapsulates Chen’s vision and activities within the increasingly “inter-referencing” East Asian intellectual community and charts necessary new directions for cultural studies.

1.作者沒有用事實做證據 作者談“帝國”與“殖民”問題,結果卻完全沒有談帝國與殖民地是如何發展變化的。比如談東亞,就要談1954年東南亞條約組織以及它是怎麼崩潰的,1958年東南亞聯盟又是怎樣形成的,這樣自然就明白帝國是怎麼“去”又是如何改頭換麵、捲土重來的。 類似的...

好書好書
評分天啊!纔看完序言,我竟然心情如此激動,實在是點齣瞭太多我思考颱灣時的關鍵問題!讀到第三章,不禁感慨,這本書讓我學到瞭很多韓國曆史,真的挺好的,和我在TA的颱灣文學史也是常常呼應,這周在講颱灣日據時期的左翼,我又想找左翼的書來看瞭。從4.8看到瞭4.21,又是拖瞭很久纔看完。陳真的對中國大陸非常友好,全書保持對mainland China intact。亞洲作為方法是個美好的願望,在互諒的基礎上,互相referencing,藉以跳齣美國霸權下的neoliberalism,私以為太難做到瞭,現在的知識生産真的能掙脫美國的束縛嗎?哎。最後一章略略掃過han racism,又是不痛不癢地這麼一提。Anyway,這是本開拓視野的好書。
評分5,反知識建構的殖民主義,強調Asia as anchoring point, intra-Asia reference; West as a cultural factor。理論在地化,道理大傢都懂,可是…
評分更年輕的時候讀的 忘瞭標記。一場關於亞洲的學術會議讓我想起來這本書。
評分解釋瞭很多長期縈繞在心頭的問題
