East Asia Frontline

東亞觀察最前線 ・ A Column by Chung-Yang Yeh

A column on the East Asia that is happening now. Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and China — four societies that, in the third decade of the twenty-first century, are each redefining what "modernity" means for themselves, at their own pace. Drawing on manga, popular culture, social data, and street observation, this column tracks the spiritual undercurrents below the headlines. The strict academic writing lives on the Academic page; this is the lighter counterpart.
