■Topic: Theorizing global popularity of South Korean 토토 사이트and re-imagination of de-Westernizing theories

■Purpose and Aim

The flows of South Korean 토토 사이트 and pop music (K-pop) across the globe (or hallyu) are among the most visible signals of a more multipolar global 토토 사이트 culture. Although there has been a proliferation of research in what is increasingly called “Korean Wave Studies,” heretofore, most theory-building has relied heavily on outside explanatory frameworks,. The purpose of this special issue is to call on scholars to articulate new theoretical directions that center around local contexts. We are not calling for a de-colonial abandonment of a Western canon but, rather, theoretical contributions that are not overly indebted to it, thereby avoiding incomplete explanations. We encourage scholars to push theoretical boundaries in order to make generative contributions that not only move forward the study of Korean 토토 사이트 and, perhaps, the study of other East Asian 토토 사이트 but that produce multipolar centers of knowledge production, which can contribute to a richer, global body of literature.

The counterflows of global Korean 토토 사이트 have attracted growing academic interest in terms of emerging cultural diversity, resistance to “minor” cultures and the ability to envision popular democracy outside of the unilateral construction of the West as the model of modernity and liberal democracy. There have been some calls to decolonize and de-Westernize the study of (East) Asian popular culture, but even hallyu studies that explain the global popularity of Korean 토토 사이트 through

post-colonial theories such as hybridity, self-Orientalism, or post-colonial desire still draw upon existing theories popular in the Western academy rather than generate a new theoretical ferment.

Although this work has been productive, the context in which these theories developed differ from Korea’s postcolonial condition. Unlike postcolonial states dominated by the West, Korea’s colonial subjugation was violently enforced by Japan, a regional neighbor, and was displaced by the U.S.’s imperial ambitions in the Pacific Islands and East Asia. The post-coloniality of Korea and Korean culture differs from societies that postcolonial theories explain. Moreover, dynamics of globalizing Korean 토토 사이트 and the current use of new 토토 사이트 often fit uneasily. Korean 토토 사이트 have heavily relied on new 토토 사이트 strategies, and the nation’s cultural industries currently produce innovative digital content and platforms (i.e. digital games, webtoon, digital K-pop platforms). In the process, Korean 토토 사이트 industries frequently intervene in the global system by mobilizing popular participation worldwide through new 토토 사이트 which raise new social and political issues such as affective labor and affective social movements. As global popularity of Korean 토토 사이트 matures within the existing global hegemonic order, innovative efforts of Korean 토토 사이트 are oftentimes created for but constrained by its economic need to export its 토토 사이트 contents within a techno global hegemonic system.

These transformations require more theoretical work and should move toward more nuanced explanatory frameworks. We believe that it is necessary to develop new directions in the study of global Korean 토토 사이트. The purpose of this special issue is to build new theory that richly draws upon the specific context of globalizing South Korean 토토 사이트. This call takes up a similar ethos to Korean 토토 사이트, which is created within its local context but with a motivation to move beyond national or regional boundaries. Topics that scholars might address include, but are not limited to:
