This collection brings together cutting-edge work by established
and emerging scholars focusing on key societies in the East Asian
region: China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, North and South Korea,
Mongolia and Vietnam. This scope enables the collection to reflect
on the nature of the transformations in constructions of sexuality
in highly developed, developing and emerging societies and
economies. Both Japan and China have established traditions of
'sexuality' studies reflecting longstanding indigenous
understandings of sex as well as more recent developments which
interface with Euro-American medical and psychological
understandings. Authors reflect upon the complex colonial and
economic interactions and cultural flows which have affected the
East Asian region over the last two centuries. They trace local
flows of ideas instead of defaulting to Euro-American paradigms for
sexuality studies. Through looking at regional and global exchanges
of ideas about sexuality, this volume adds considerably to our
understanding of the East Asian region and contributes to wider
discussions of social transformation, modernisation and
globalisation. It will be essential reading in undergraduate and
graduate programs in sexuality studies, gender studies, women's
studies and masculinity studies, as well as in anthropology,
sociology, history, cultural studies, area studies and health
sciences.
