Paperback. Condition: Good. In this powerful and provocative book, Prasenjit Duara uses the case of Manchukuo, the Japanese puppet state in northeast China from 1932-1945, to explore how such antinomies as imperialism and nationalism, modernity and tradition, and governmentality and exploitation interacted in the post-World War I period. His study of Manchukuo, which had a population of 40 million and was three times the area of Japan, catalyzes a broader understanding of new global trends that characterized much of the twentieth century. Asking why Manchukuo so desperately sought to appear sovereign, Duara examines the cultural and political resources it mobilized to make claims of sovereignty. He argues that Manchukuo, as a transparently constructed 'nation-state,' offers a unique historical laboratory for examining the utilization and transformation of circulating global forces mediated by the 'East Asian modern.' Sovereignty and AUthenticity not only shows how Manchukuo drew technologies of modern nationbuilding from China and Japan, but it provides a window into how some of these techniques and processes were obscured or naturalized in the more successful East Asian nation-states. With its sweepingly original theoretical and comparative perspectives on nationalism and imperialism, this book will be essential reading for all those interested in contemporary history.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. In the erudite essay that opens this forum, Prasenjit Duara turns to both indigenous thinkers and the premodern past for tools with which to think about Asia in a global age. Contemporary modalities of regional exchangeweakly bounded, network oriented, pluralistic, multitemporalchime with earlier patterns of cultural circulation without state domination, giving rise to a prophetic vision of "Asia Redux". This attempt to capture the contours of a (re) emergent region was calculated to provoke. And what a debate it kicks off. Wang Hui resolutely reframes imagining Asia as a political project on a world-historical canvas, Tansen Sen greatly complicates the map of intra-Asian commercial exchange in earlier times, Amitav Acharya outlines five competing conceptions of Asia in the domain of international relations alone, Barbara Watson Andaya teases out the paradoxical way in which regional religions make clashing claims about Asian unity, and Rudolf Mrazek asks, what of the Asia that bleeds? What of exploitation and its spawn, the inglorious buttends of the global economy? The reward for those who read this collection straight through is a thrillingly cacophonous conversation about how to grasp Asia in our time. (jacket). …
