Abstract

This book centres on the re-emerging ideas of Orientalism and Occidentalism in the areas of higher education, student mobility, literature, media, and music. In 1978, Said defined Orientalism as ‘the study of the language and cultures of the Orient and Asia’ (p. xi) and provocatively
characterized the relationship between Orientalism and Occidentalism as one ‘of power, of domination and of a varying degree of hegemony’ (p. 5). This study is a fresh look at an old problem, asking if, in the new global order, anything has really changed in this power relationship. It broadens the contexts of previous works to include, for example, Chinese students in Australian and Singaporean universities, the Japanese diaspora in Brazil, and American recording companies plundering Ghanaian, Turkish, Ethiopian, and Cambodian musical forms
