In our hyper-globalised age of shifting borders and hybridised identities, we nonetheless continue to map the world, sociopolitically and culturally as much as physically. What conceptual tools might emerge from an exercise of “transcultural mappings”? Can it represent a possible way through a certain postmodern and postcolonial impasse? What factors might determine how these mappings occur and how they evolve? “Transcultural Mappings : emerging issues in comparative, transnational and area studies” aims to track why and how such debates have gained prominence in transnational, area and comparative cultural studies as well as to consider the methodological and ideological implications of such theoretical reworkings. |
