Welcome to Volume 3
Number 1 of the Graduate Journal of Asia-Pacific Studies. The theme of
this edition is ‘Imagining the Asia-Pacific’. The Asia-Pacific
region and its many component parts offer fertile ground for the
imaginative process, characterised as it is by fluidity, diversity and
the coexistence of so many contrasting visions and interpretations of
the past, present and future. All who observe and interpret for others
the myriad symbols, rituals and stories that exist within the
Asia-Pacific region inevitably participate in the ongoing imagination
and construction of individual and collective identities. The
contributions in this issue offer different and interpretive
perspectives to the 'imagining' theme, ranging from the personal to the
institutional, from the aspirations and actions of grass-roots activism
to the realm of high politics, and from reinterpreting appropriative
gazes to making marginalised communities visible.
