Against the Odds in Asia: Transnational Connections and Regional Activist Alliances from the 1890s to the 2020s |
○講演概要 |
This presentation will explore the ways that people working for change in different parts of East and Southeast Asia have periodically paid close attention to and expressed solidarity with one another’s causes, learned from one another successes and failures, and found ways to work together. The talk’s goal is to place into historical perspective recent visions of a “Milk Tea Alliance” linking struggles in Thailand, Taiwan, Burma, and Hong Kong. East Asian figures discussed will range from Sun Yat-sen, who rose to power via the Chinese Revolution of 1911, to Agnes Chow, who took part in Hong Kong struggles such as 2014’s Umbrella Movement and is now a political exile in Canada. Southeast Asian figures discussed will range from participants in the fight to free the Philippines from Spanish colonial rule more than a century ago to Bangkok protesters of the 2020s. Attention will be drawn to how connections were forged between activists in different eras via coming together in physical places, such as Tokyo in the early twentieth century, and virtual spaces, such as social media platforms in contemporary times. |
