By integrating urban studies and film studies, Asian Urbanization through Cinema looks into the ongoing urbanization process as well as related demographic, economic, political, socio-cultural, and environmental changes occurring in Asian cities. This course also examines the artistic portrayal of the urban transformations in Asian contemporary cinema. The course focuses on cities in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Korea, Japan, and other Asian countries/regions. In addition, this course explores diasporic Asian spaces in North America, and the intersectionality of race, gender, sexuality, and immigration.
