Book Information

This volume addresses the relationship between culture and politics in Asia, taking a stance on specific issues but aiming overall to clear the emotional, ideological and ungrounded generalizations found in current academic debate. The contributions cover Japan, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, and address issues such as Western versus East Asian notions of good government.
