Global Circulation of Asian Popular Culture - ASN301

This unit explores Asian popular cultures in a global and cross-cultural context. It looks at notions of change, intertextuality and globalisation within the context of diverse cultural encounters in the region and beyond. The specific focus is on popular cultures in relation to youth cultures and social issues facing today's youth, with particular attention to countries which have developed popular culture as an export industry – especially China, Japan, India and Korea. It is advantageous if students have prior study in other Asian studies, Japanese studies or Chinese studies cultural units before or together with this unit. The unit is conducted in English.
