Taiwan Studies Reconfigured, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book presents a critical intervention into the evolving field of Taiwan Studies. It offers a kaleidoscopic view of how Taiwan can be engaged across a variety of global research agendas-from coloniality and migration to digital sovereignty, memory politics, and queer futurity.

Exemplifying the field's growing methodological and thematic richness and drawing from disciplines such as anthropology, political science, gender studies, and history, this book frames Taiwan not as a static geopolitical object but as a generative site of epistemic, cultural, and political possibility. The book demonstrates how Taiwan's complexity speaks directly to global debates on democracy, indigeneity, ecological crisis, and the politics of knowledge.

Combining theoretical sophistication with empirical depth, this book serves as both a scholarly milestone and a pedagogical toolkit for rethinking the field's boundaries. It will be of interest to students, researchers, and practitioners engaged in Taiwan Studies, East Asian Studies, postcolonial theory, global studies, and comparative area studies.
