Book Synopsis The Political Culture of East Asia by : Oleg Pakhomov
Download or read book The Political Culture of East Asia written by Oleg Pakhomov and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-15 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the phenomenon of total power in East Asia, with particular attention to China, Korea, and Japan. It shows how total power enables an examination of regional experience as a part of global context in order to demarcate the connections with other countries and regions that have similar political cultures, such as those in Central Asia, the Middle East, and East Africa. Moreover, it elucidates that the phenomenon of total power unpacks the interrelations not only between different countries, but also between political, economic, religious, or cultural aspects of the region as a whole, and of each country in particular. This book takes East Asia as a classic example of where total power has achieved the highest forms of development during traditional periods in the form of absolute economic dependence of society on the state, ideologically enshrined by a system of moral obligations toward supreme power that allowed for the establishment of a monopoly on forced labour, and the appropriation and distribution of social products. The author emphasizes the importance of exploring the tradition of total power with reference to the ongoing global crisis of European democracy. In doing so, the book shows that democratization has not brought qualitative changes to the political culture of East Asia. An essential interdisciplinary read for scholars studying political science, particularly East-West relations, this book situates East Asian political culture within a global context.

Book Synopsis Vietnam and the Chinese Model by : Alexander Barton Woodside
Download or read book Vietnam and the Chinese Model written by Alexander Barton Woodside and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Why did the Vietnamese accept certain Chinese institutions and yet explicitly reject others? How did Vietnamese cultural borrowings from China alter the dynamics of traditional relations between Vietnam, Siam, Laos, and Cambodia? How did Vietnam’s smaller Southeast Asian environment modify and distort classical East Asian institutions? Woodside has answered these questions in this well-received political and cultural study. This first real comparison of the civil governments of two traditional East Asian societies on an institution-by-institution basis is now reissued with a new preface."

Book Synopsis Vietnamese Society in Transition by : John Kleinen
Download or read book Vietnamese Society in Transition written by John Kleinen and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this bilingual publication, (English and French), academics from various disciplines and countries -- including Vietnam -- have been brought together to discuss agricultural engineering, economic development, religion, education, and gender in colonial and post-colonial Vietnam. Most of them are taking an insiders' position. The emphasis of the book lies on the postwar societal and cultural transformations in the country. A better understanding of new social and cultural ways in contemporary Vietnam entails excursions into the past and sound comparison. For the first time in the history of Vietnamese studies chapters are devoted to the position of women in colonial and post-colonial settings and on the legitimacy of state intervention in women's bodies under different regimes on the one hand and on religion and religious revival on the other. What makes this book special is the way the authors, stemming from such heterogene domains, provide an in-depth analysis of the development of this modern socialist state. Their approach and analysis of Vietnamese society can only be called unparalleled.

Book Synopsis Intellectuals and Nationalism in Indonesia by : J. D. Legge
Download or read book Intellectuals and Nationalism in Indonesia written by J. D. Legge and published by Equinox Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has always been a matter of national pride that independence came to Indonesia not as the result of a negotiated transfer of sovereignty, though the process was completed in that way, but through a struggle of heroic proportions in whose fires the nation itself was forged. The revolution, indeed, is central to the Republic's perception of itself. To call it a revolution is, of course, to beg a number of important questions. What is a revolution? Is the concept, developed in modern thought on the models of the French and Russian revolutions, applicable to a nationalist struggle for independence? Or must a revolution involve also a transfer of power from one social class to another and a subsequent social transformation? For Indonesians looking back to the birth of the nation, however, such questions do not arise. For them there is no question but that the events of 1945-49 constituted a revolution, a revolution that is seen as the supreme act of national will, the symbol of national self-reliance and, for those caught up in it, as a vast emotional experience in which the people -- the people as a whole -- participated directly. The exploration of Sjahrir's recruitment of a group of followers during the Japanese Occupation and of the character and attitudes of the group is based, in large measure, on interviews with its surviving members. A highly articulate body of people, they clearly enjoyed recalling their youth, remembering particular experiences, and thinking back on the issues that had preoccupied them and the ideas that had excited them as students. For many of them it had obviously been a golden age, perceived all the more vividly now because the world they had hoped for had never come into being. There is, perhaps, a good deal of nostalgia in their memories of what it was like to be a part of a crucial period in their country's history and no doubt some misjudgment about the parts they played. Oral history is a risky business, given the fallibility of human memory and the tendency for interviewer and subject alike to collaborate in re-shaping the past in the light of their later perspectives. The dangers of such a method are discussed below. Nevertheless, provided it is kept in mind that memories are documents of the present and not of the period with which they deal, it is important to gather these recollections while members of the generation in question are still alive.
