Originally finding a home in the otherwise circumscribed field of Japan Studies, Sakai's writings have succeeded in large part in destabilizing that home, exposing the fragility of its boundaries to an outside that threatens constantly to overwhelm it. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBringing together an expert team of contributors from North America, Europe and Russia, this volume takes the groundbreaking work of Naoki Sakai as its starting point and broadens the scope of Cultural Studies to bridge across philosophy and critical theory. At the same time it explicitly problematizes the putative divide between \"Asian\" and \"Western\" research objects and methodologies, and the link between culture and the nation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Politics of Culture\u003c\/em\u003e will appeal to upper level undergraduates and graduates in Asian studies, cultural studies, comparative literature and philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Calichman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415854946\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415854948\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.57d","brand":"Richard Calichman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45482434035967,"sku":"9780415854948","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8743f697-6580-4e19-857a-f743fbf47c28.jpg?v=1715998520","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-politics-of-culture-richard-calichman-9780415854948","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
