Discovering Negotiated Spaces of Cultural Expression
Examining Japanese Empire Archives
Research program: Culture and Representation
This project examines neglected Governors General of Korea archive materials
concerning cultural policy debates at four major policy-making conferences. It demonstrates how
empires operate and maintain control through media regulation. It builds upon Brian Yecies' previous
research with a substantially different discovery about how colonial subjects negotiate a counter-hegemonic
space for the construction and expression of culture.
