As an influential contemporary Chinese American writer, Kingston addresses the notions of diasporic identity and consciousness regarding her family and her own physical and psychological experiences of commuting between homeland and hostland, which are necessarily defined by specific arrangements of spatial form and spatial content. A literary work is no doubt a dynamic mechanism ignited by the writer’s creative motivation, the textual narrative design and the reader’s response, and the motif must be reflected in the textual expression. Kingston initially made significant contributions to the formation of the modern Chinese American narrative modes and has focused more on poetic writing later in her career. Her 2011 poetry collection, I Love a Broad Margin to My Life, is an inheritance of her early diasporic advocacy in a new age. This paper explores Kingston’s diasporic consciousness from the perspective of spatial narrative in her China Men and I Love a Broad Margin to My Life, in an effort to track Kingston’s changes of diasporic consciousness from “claim(ing) America” to transnationalism.
Ghost Ships as Spectral Geography: An Introduction to North Korean Necro-Mobilities
Robert Winstanley-Chesters 건국대학교 아시아·디아스포라 연구소 2020 International Journal of Diaspora&Cultural Critici Vol.10 No.2
North Koreans have always been required to work hard, to offer their bodies, spirits and lives to serve Pyongyang’s developmental ambitions and agendas. When times have been difficult North Korean citizens have had to work harder, to dig more and harvest more. North Koreans who live in coastal communities have also been encouraged by bureaucracies and institutions to extract more the seas and oceans. North Korea has often faced difficulties and in developing fishing capabilities and capacities, inspite of ambitions to become a global fishing power. North Koreans who are not traditionally fishermen, have thus set to sea underprepared, under-resourced and lacking in capabilities and many have come to grief on the high seas, and died far from their native shores. Months later their vessels have arrived unannounced and unexpected on the shores of Japan and the Russian Federation, ship intact but with a macabre crew of highly mobile dead North Koreans. These are the ‘ghost ships’ and they have provided an extraordinary challenge for regional authorities on how to manage this form of North Korean mobility. Building from work on spectral and ghostly geographies, this paper considers the mobilities and immobilities of these ships and their crews, including recent work on necro-mobilities. It seeks the spaces created for them on distant shores and the conceptual spaces their bodies create in East Asian regional politics. Finally it places them within the wider frame of active and lively materials from North Korea and the problems generated by their mobilities and immobilities.

The development of Indonesian literature in the 21st century is marked by the boom of popular fiction. One of the characteristics of this fiction is the main character living in a foreign country. By living abroad, the author of this genre of fiction wants to show to the readers that the main character is world-minded. World-mindedness is suggestive of having values that rely on humanity rather than one’s nationality being the principal frame of reference. By using a foreign country as the setting, the author wants to show to the readers that the main character is world-minded. By applying the theory of world-mindedness, this study tries to see how Indonesian popular fiction shows that the Indonesian within fiction is now able to be global and local at the same time. By focusing on a novel written by an unknown writer, this study tries to see how Indonesian popular fiction embraces global connectedness.

Pham Tran Thuy Anh 건국대학교 아시아·디아스포라 연구소 2017 International Journal of Diaspora&Cultural Critici Vol.7 No.1
This paper explores the elements constituting humanism in HCM’s PD as explained in two different sections which explore how humanism is embodied in five selected poems of PD and how it underpins the poems’ aesthetics. However, it must be noted that the politics of his poems also significantly contribute to the “conditions of possibility” of HCM’s poetics. Therefore, the second section explores how the aesthetics of PD may be linked to its politics. And the conclusion of the chapter discusses the factors constituting humanism in HCM’s PD.

Coffea is a plant that has a big influence in the world. Coffee drinks have been made since 3,000 years ago. Thenceforth, the café began to flourish in the West until the coffee plants were brought to Java by the Dutch in the 17th century. From the 20th until early 21st century, a business of coffee is turned into warung kopi (Indonesian traditional coffee shop). This warung kopi is managed by the small group of Indonesian entrepreneurs, competed with the modern café which is managed by the entrepreneurs. Therefore, several problems will be explained by this paper. (1) Why could the society in Java be influenced by a coffee culture which also affected the writer of Filosofi Kopi (The Philosophy of Coffee)? (2) How is the appearance of the hegemony of coffee culture as transcultural encounters in Filosofi Kopi? (3) How does the coffee culture affect to competition between warung kopi and café presented in Filosofi Kopi? This paper uses qualitative data analysis and Gramsci’s hegemony theory. Since the 17th century, coffea has become a commodity on Java Island. Coffee consumption began to grow and this shaped the coffee culture among the Java inhabitants. It influenced literary works ― in this case, the writer of Filosofi Kopi. The story of the novel and film shows there are encounters and competition between the West and the local culture seen through the cafés and warung kopi in Java. The traditionality and small capital of the Warung Kopi (Indonesian Traditional Coffee Shop) will still be able to stand against the penetration of big capital of Western culture as manifested by the cafe.

The discussion of diasporic literature in Asia is often associated with canon literary works written by Indian and Chinese diasporic writers like Jhumpa Lahiri, Bharati Mukherjee, Salman Rushdie, VS Naipaul, Hong Ying, Zeng Yi, Harry Wu, and Amy Tan who are some of the second generation of their diasporic ancestor who live abroad due to some dispersal reasons mostly of economic condition. The narrative of those diasporic literature usually implies the main characters’ ambivalence toward their hostland in which they adopt its culture with admiration but at the same time they make resistance toward the culture since they know it is not their root culture. That condition arouses identity crisis of the main characters as diasporic people which gives narrative a melancholy tone. This article will report a study which examines the concept of Bhabha’s ambivalence in a popular literary work written by an Indonesian writer who lived temporarily in Australia, Iqbal Aji Daryono, titled Out of the Truck Box. Different from the mentioned canon works, the narrative of this diasporic literature has a celebratory tone with satirical humor. The study on the novel tries to reveal what factors might influence the different tone of diasporic literature. The study applies qualitative research method using close reading to reveal what factors might influence the narrative’s tone of diasporic literature. The data is collected by clustering written expressions in the book based on the concept of Bhabha’s ambivalence, then they are analyzed with postcolonial approach. The result of the study shows that the tone of diasporic literature is influenced by the diasporic people’s traditional cultural bond, social class, the dispersal reason, the awareness of postcolonial discourse and the muclticultural hostland.
Movemus ergo sumus: Riding the Korean Wave, Gang-Nam Style, from Seoul to MIT
James T. Bretzke 건국대학교 아시아·디아스포라 연구소 2022 International Journal of Diaspora&Cultural Critici Vol.12 No.1
This paper outlines the power of Korean Hallyu by analysing and comparing PSY’s worldwide hit music video “Gang Nam Style” and its remake version by Korean Students Association of MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). Drawing on hermeneutical theory, a touchstone for a classic is its ability to allow for a “fusion of horizons.” The resulting new meanings and possible interpretations of the classic lead to the birth of new works that can be experienced by audiences and readers regardless of the location and the time. A close reading of both Gang Nam Style music videos, including camera technique, mise-en-scène, social background, and editing, shows us that the critique of both the Gang Nam lifestyle in Korea and competitive academic atmosphere in MIT is created and recreated in a somewhat comic manner. This paper provides mobility studies with an insightful methodology and perspective to further enhance the understanding of Korea Hallyu power.
