SOAS Studies in Modern and Contemporary Japan

The Translocal Island of Okinawa reveals the underrepresented memories, visions and actions that are involved in the making of Okinawan resistance against its subordinated status under the US-Japan security system beyond the narrowly defined political, cultural and geographical borders of locality. As Okinawa's base politics is a problem deeply rooted in the context of East Asia, so is the history of the people's protest movement. The issue examined in this book is the arbitrary distinction of scale between 'local', which tends to be employed for a particular territory demarcated by a cohesive culture, and 'regional', a larger area that consists of myriad localities. Locality, Shinnosuke Takahashi here argues, is neither self-evident, fixed nor homogenous but is established through historical processes that involve interaction, conflict and negotiation of individuals and communities across territorial and cultural boundaries. This book reveals the novel concept of Okinawa as a translocal island which offers a way to understand locality in the context of Okinawan activism as a product of multiple cultural and human flows, as opposed to the conventional way of framing the local community as fixed, internally cohesive and rigidly bordered. It makes an exciting contribution to the field of modern Japanese and East Asian studies by stimulating discussions on the richness and scale of local civic activism that is increasingly becoming a key political feature of the East Asian region.

Anti-Base Activism and Grassroots Regionalism

The Translocal Island of Okinawa

Rebecca Solnit offers a thrilling account of the sheer breadth and scale of social, political, scientific, and cultural change over the past three quarters of a century. 
 
In this sequel to her enduring bestseller&nbsp;Hope in the Dark, Solnit surveys a world that has changed dramatically since the year 1960. Despite the forces seeking to turn back the clock on history, change is not a possibility; it is an inevitability. 
 
The changes amount to nothing less than dismantling an old civilization and building a new one, whose newness is often the return of the old ways and wisdoms. In this rising worldview, interconnection is a core idea and value. But because the transformation is obscured within a longer arc of history, its scale is seldom recognized. 
 
While the white nationalist and authoritarian backlash drives individualism and isolation, this new world embraces antiracism, feminism, a more expansive understanding of gender, environmental thinking, scientific breakthroughs, and Indigenous and non-Western ideas, pointing toward a more interconnected, relational world.

The book will be a work of non-fiction examining the intersections of sex work, power, violence and feminism, building on an article the author wrote for n+1 on these same topics. It will examine and debunk prevalent myths of what commercial sex is and isn't; reveal sex workers not as hostages of the patriarchy, but as leaders of feminist movements; strip away the commonly accepted pillars of conversation around sex work to ask whether it's useful to frame 'sex work' as 'work' at all; and use international examples from the US, UK and elsewhere to build a picture of the current state of legislation and possible futures.

Sex, Work and Survival

Anything of Value

Offers deeply researched entries on nearly 200 essential people, events, organizations, laws, concepts, and issues that have defined US feminist movements, from the founding era through today.
