Research Area
Inter-Asia Cultural Studies, East-Asian Intellectual Movement, East-Asian Intellectual History, Decolonialism, Inter-Korean/Cross-strait Inter-referencing, Neocolonial/Division System
My research focuses on two themes: 1) Literary Practice and Thought Innovation, 2) Genealogy of Social Characteristics Theory and Contemporary Significance. Starting from decolonialist perspective, my research combines literature and economy which have been two main domains for thoughts, and tries to do inter-referencing cultural studies on East-Asian region. Adopting various practices including study group, workshop and conference with more scholars and students, I expect to create new way of knowledge practice producing deeper and wider thought.
