Bag om Cosmopolitan Asia

One key concept in the large body of scholarship concerned with theorizing social relations is the idea of 'cosmopolitanism'. This book unpacks the idea of cosmopolitanism as it relates to Asia, and focuses on regions and places where inter-Asian intermingling has taken place. A wide range of subjects are considered: present and historical, real, as represented in literature and in theatre, and as theorized in philosophy. The book reveals a cosmopolitanism that is much more specifically Asian than the cosmopolitanism usually associated with the West, demonstrates how concepts of 'nation', 'local' and 'globalization' play out in practice in Asian settings, and re-examines concepts such as migration, diaspora, and the construction of identities.
