| Results and Impact | In the last two decades, East Asian countries have opened up regionally and globally. The pressure for democratization in the region has intensified as the global agendas of human rights and neo-liberalism penetrate the region, and as the civil society becomes more and more organized. At the same time, East Asia is facing renewed nationalist impulse and assertiveness due to fierce competition in global and regional markets, and new economic and political power realignments. This conference brings together an international group of scholars to shed light on the transformations of the nation and citizenship in response to regional and global dynamics in East Asia. By focusing on a variety of institutional, policy and societal sites from a comparative perspective, the conference will address how contradictory pressures and the tension between transnational and national agendas transform the ideals and practices of 'good society' and 'good citizen'. The conference aims to provide a forum for international and East Asian scholars and researchers to engage discussions on the highly topical questions of the nation and citizenship in a global era, regional integration, and transnationalism. |
