Recenzii
"How do we envision the so-called threat of an impending 'Asian Century'? And, as importantly, how do we feel about it? This extraordinary sequel gives us the critical insights and imaginative tools to understand a technologically driven future that is at once terrifying and desirable."
Descriere
Techno-Orientalism 2.0 addresses the impact of a volatile post-COVID present on speculative futures by and about Asians. The volume engages with techno-Orientalist inflections in recent high-profile and lesser-known Asian and Asian American speculative fiction, film, television, anime, art, music, journalism, architecture, state-sponsored policy and infrastructural projects, and the now-dominant China Panic.
