Reviews
"Anti-Japan is a timely analysis of the complex relationships among countries in East Asia as the political and economic power relationship in the region is rapidly reconstructed." -- Linda Wang * International Social Science Review *
"This creative, thought-provoking, and deeply insightful book speaks to multiple cross-disciplinary audiences, including specialists and general readers in East Asian history, culture, and politics. It would also be of interest to anyone interested in memory, postcolonial studies, nationalism, and postconflict resolution and reconciliation."
-- Seo-Hyun Park * Journal of Asian Studies *"Leo Ching's book Anti-Japan is a timely and relevant addition to the discussions surrounding the recent developments in Northeast Asia." -- Joon Oh * China Report *
"This thought-provoking book will help readers reevaluate and contextualize various literary works, films, testimonies, music videos, video games, and other aspects of popular culture.... [T]his book provokes readers to reevaluate issues related to historical reconciliation in East Asia." -- Takashi Yoshida * Journal of Japanese Studies *
"What Ching's book does to set it apart from what is a fairly crowded field is to situate his analysis across the disciplinary boundaries of cultural studies, postcolonial studies, and the burgeoning studies of affect and emotions.... This is a thoughtful and thought-provoking book and deserves to be read widely." -- Caroline Rose * Pacific Affairs *
