Workshop: Cultural Mobilities and their Transnational Entanglement in East Asia

24.09.2018 | 09:15 - 21:00

The workshop aims to compare the contemporary and historical modalities of cultural mobilities in East Asia, and their transnational entanglements. What particular cultural models, frameworks, institutions, and products diffuse and reach across borders? What specific transnational features of education, popular culture, artistic practices, and religious organization make such mobilities possible?
