Imperialism in East Asia
Discipline:Asian Studies
Imperialism in East Asia offers an important new focus on the modern history and enduring legacies of imperialism in East Asia, providing a platform for critical exploration of the histories of imperialism in China, Korea and Japan, comparative studies of the phenomenon, and research tracing the connections between imperialisms in the region. In particular, it seeks to showcase research that brings new or neglected sources before academic and informed readerships, and welcomes contributions by new and established authors.
