Militarized Currents: Toward a Decolonized Future in Asia and the Pacific

Foregrounding indigenous and feminist scholarship, this collection analyzes militarization as an extension of colonialism from the late twentieth to the twenty-first century in Asia and the Pacific. The contributors theorize the effects of militarization across former and current territories of Japan and the United States, such as Guam, Okinawa, the Marshall Islands, the Philippines, and Korea, demonstrating that the relationship between militarization and colonial subordinationand their gendered and racialized processesshapes and produces bodies of memory, knowledge, and resistance.
