Description

Pornography’s impact on transnational models of media aesthetics and governance has been well documented from a Euro-American perspective.

This book contributes to the field of pornography studies by rethinking the cultural impact of pornography as audio-visual and online media from an East Asian perspective.

It focuses on pornographies made and consumed in and across Japan, Korea, China, and Hong Kong.

The chapters examine under-reported East Asian cultures of pornography, not only to uncover phenomena from within this region but also to challenge and fine-tune existing academic research networks and paradigms.

This book proposes that the lived experience of producing and consuming various pornographies throughout East Asia may extend, nuance, challenge, or even affirm the dominant Euro-American understandings of pornography that are becoming increasingly axiomatic within pornography studies as an emerging interdisciplinary field of study.

This book was originally published as a special issue of the journal Porn Studies.
