Biography

Chris Chien is an SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellow in Global Asian Studies at 尤物视频 and a Postdoctoral Associate in Transnational Asian Studies at Tulane University. His first book project examines the continuities and disjunctures of the Cold War with today鈥檚 so-called "New Cold War" between the U.S. and China through a visual analysis of aesthetic commodities, infrastructure, and logistics across the transpacific. In positing an alternative to the New Cold War鈥檚 statist hyper-nationalism, this project draws from the radical coalition politics of 1970s-80s Black and Women of Color feminists to explore the possibility of global non-sovereign coalition through an examination of artistic production across Global Asia. His writing has appeared in Amerasia, The Funambulist, The Nation, and Jacobin. He is an organizer and editor with Lausan Collective.
