Queer pop Asia: toward a hybrid regionalist imaginary

Abstract

"There is a larger context behind this project of rethinking Asian queer cultural studies, which has to do with the broad critical debate about the de-centering of the existing forms of multicultural critique and theory production at large (Birch, 2000; Cevasco, 2000; Chen, 1996; Abbas and Erni, 2005; Stratton and Ang, 1996). However, the research about queers that originates in Asia today has yet to confront the received forms of inquiry and models of analysis that has mostly been centered on western experiences (see Erni, 2003)."
