Queer Global Asias Event – A Speculative Methodology Workshop
(Co-host with UCSB the Center for Feminist Futures)
Blending archival work, ethnography, and cultural analysis with memoir, graphic arts, and science fiction, Queer Chimerica unpacks the ways in which the transnational circulation of queer culture, politics, and institutions are structured through the antagonist interdependence of China and the United States. By examining the intersecting timelines of the rise of queer theory and the rise of China in the late Cold War era, Dr. Shana Ye explores the relationship between the discourse of queer fluidity and capital’s demands for labor flexibility.
