ANTH 022 SC - Urban East Asia

Contemporary mega cities in East Asia have undergone increasingly intense socioeconomic and spatial reconstruction in recent decades. These cities not only show the various processes of modernization, urbanization and globalization in locally specific contexts, but also have become new models of urbanism themselves. Drawing on various ethnographies, films, and theoretical perspectives, the course highlights the lived experiences of diverse groups and the spatial forms that produce the dynamic landscape of the cities.
