Description
This wide-ranging, multidisciplinary collection of essays analyzes the social, political, economic and ideological impact of the forces of globalization, and of the nationalist responses to these, in major Asian nations such as India, Malaysia, Indonesia, China and Japan. Some of the key issues dealt with are: the globalization of Hindu nationalism; the ideological struggle in East Asia between nationalists and the advocates of a pan-Asian civilization; the repercussions for Asian nations of the recent pan-Asian financial crisis; the rise of neo-nationalism in late 20th-century Japan; the Chinese nationalist response to Western economic domination; and the conflict between ethnic nationalism and national unity in Malaysia, Indonesia and Fiji.
