Culture/China: New Formations

by Harriet Evans (Editor)

Culture/China is as elusive in its possible meanings as it is general. It is a political project which acknowledges-without engaging in-controversies of ownership and location. The issue takes part in diasporic negotiations with China, with Chineseness and with the politics of not being Chinese. What does it mean to be Chinese in terms of community, identity, politics and relationships wherever you live? These negotiations are understood through their cultural language, the Internet, television, metaphor, food, painting, fashion and film.
