- Summary
- The editors (affiliated with the department of English language and literature, National U. of Singapore present 29 selected papers from the 9th Biennial Symposium on the Literatures and Cultures of the Asia-Pacific Region. The theme of the symposium was "complicity" in the age of globalization, carrying both negative and positive connotations of "compromises" and "resistances" in literature and culture. Examining Asian-Pacific literatures in English, the papers engage the concept of complicitousness in a range of dimensions. The papers are grouped into sections that are broadly categorized in terms of Asia-Pacific relations; the politics of identity; and language, gender, and empowerment.
