The Association of Asian Studies, Inc., 2004. The Journal of Asian Studies has long been recognized as the most authoritative and prestigious publication in the field of Asian studies. The five articles in this issue make it clear that the study of kinship, family, and property and their relationship to social transformations (modernity, for instance) and larger social formations (the nation or colonialism) is alive and well. The conclusions that these articles reach about changing social practices also serve to undermine any analytical recourse to what Gail Hershatter refers to as “sloppy linear narrative.”. Soft Cover.

The Association of Asian Studies, Inc., 2003. Very slight cover wear. Nice, tight, unmarked copy. The Journal of Asian Studies has long been recognized as the most authoritative and prestigious publication in the field of Asian studies. The articles in this issue deal with, in different ways, questions of ritual (Nelson, Haboush, Colombijn), commemoration and memory (Haboush, Cummings, Nelson), and state building (all of the articles). The states with which the articles deal are very different—postwar Japan, seventeenth-century Korea, early modern Sumatra and South Sulawesi, and the contemporary Philippines. The processes that are delineated are also quite different from one another, as are the questions that the authors pose about those processes. Nonetheless, the articles treat a number of common issues, including questions about the role of power, the legitimation of political rule, elite and popular perceptions of state authority, and the means of socializing subjects into accepting shared systems of meaning..

The Association of Asian Studies, Inc., 2003. Very slight cover wear. Nice, tight, unmarked copy. The Journal of Asian Studies has long been recognized as the most authoritative and prestigious publication in the field of Asian studies. The five articles in this issue deal, in a variety of ways, with local cultural forms in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Although concerns with colonialism and modernity play an important role in the conceptualization of the articles, what distinguishes them is their concern with particulars—fictional narrative, religious ritual, theatrical space, painting and performance, and religious narrative—and the way that attention to particularities illuminates larger questions..
