Description

The essays in this book address the multi-layered and trans-disciplinary agenda faced by us today while re-examining the identity of Asia as a hybrid entity with diverse and pluralistic values from both a conceptual and practical standpoint. The hope is that the growing solidarity of Asian public intellectuals will lay the foundation for the future of Asia's regional unity in diversity. The book poses fundamental questions on the validity of constructions of Asia, not only within Eurocentric and Orientalist, but also within Asia and Asian, discourse. - From the Foreword
