Reimagining Nation and Nationalism in Multicultural East Asia
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-89634-5 (ISBN)
This book explores new perspectives, concepts, and theories that are socially relevant, culturally suitable, and normatively attractive in the East Asia context. It not only outlines the particular experiences of nation, citizenship, and nationalism in East Asian countries but also places them within the wider theoretical context. The contributors look at how nationalism under the force of multiculturalism, or vice versa, affects East Asian societies including China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong differently.
The key themes are:
Democracy and equality;
Confucianism’s relationship with nationalism, cosmopolitanism and multiculturalism;
China’s use of its political institutions to initiate and sustain nationalism; the impact of globalization on nationalism in South Korea, Taiwan and Japan;
the role of democracy in reinvigorating indigenous cultures in Taiwan.
