Aims and Scope: 
The cultural question is among the most important yet 
difficult subject facing inter-Asia today. Throughout the 
20th century, worldwide competition over capital, colonial 
history, and the Cold War has jeopardized interactions 
among cultures. Globalization of technology, 
regionalization of economy and the end of the Cold War have 
opened up a unique opportunity for cultural exchanges to 
take place. In response to global cultural changes, 
cultural studies has emerged internationally as an 
energetic field of scholarship.

Inter-Asia Cultural Studies gives a long overdue voice, 
throughout the global intellectual community, to those 
concerned with inter-Asia processes. Inter-Asia Cultural 
Studies includes discussion, reports and analysis from 
global critical circles, and especially from marginalised 
sites, with the aim of enhancing the communication and 
exchange between inter-Asia and other regions of the 
cultural studies world.

Inter-Asia Cultural Studies: 

 provides a forum for scholars working in cultural studies 
in Asia 
. responds to the re-centering of cultural studies outside 
the Anglo-American axis and participates in cultural 
politics at a local level, but with an international agenda 
. constructs a “critical inter-Asia subjectivity”, drawing 
on local critical intellectual traditions while making 
global links with other cultural studies networks 
. problematizes “Asia” in the context of Asia’s post-war 
economic and cultural resurgence and its troubled history 
as colonised and coloniser 
. links cultural studies practices to the new social and 
cultural movements.
