Inhaltsangabe

Philosophical debates around reflexivity, identity and intimacy have preoccupied Western social and cultural theorists since the 1990s, and this book examines them in relation to the Chinese diasporic cultures in Asia. The debates are set within the context of globalization, and its impact on cultural, gendered and ethnic identities in late modernity.
