    The series of reflections are based on a roundtable discussion amongst Canada-based scholars with research interest in transnational, postcolonial, migration and diaspora studies.

  • Organic and Inorganic Chinas

    Christopher B Patterson, Y-Dang Troeung et al.ARTICLEAmerasia Journal2019

    Cold War discourses reconceived of Chinese cultures as two Chinas, one of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), and the other of the “other China” (Taiwan), or “Greater China” (Hong Kong, Singapore).

    Y-Dang Troeung, Y‐dang TroeungARTICLERethinking History2014References: 3

    This essay examines Vann Nath's memoir A Cambodian Prison Portrait: One Year in the Khmer Rouge's S-21 as a historical genre enjoined to Cambodia's contemporary human rights movement. Exemplifying Tzevetan Todorov's assertions about new genre formation, Nath's text functions as what I term a human rights literary self-portrait. While the literary self-portrait has been associated with a Western tradition of autobiography that chronicles the life …
