Abstract
Professor Mark Levin, the director of the Center for Japanese Studies, will speak with the editor of and two of the contributors to Unpredictable Agents: The Making of Japan’s Americanists during the Cold War and Beyond (University of Hawaiʻi Press, 2021). The book is a collection of twelve essays by Japanese scholars of American Studies who encountered “America” in different ways during the Cold War decades. Through the authors' personal journeys and intellectual trajectories, the essays illustrate the complex positionalities, fluid identities, ambivalent embrace, and unpredictable agency of Japan’s Ameriacnists who continue to chart their own course in and across the Pacific. In this event, three scholars for whom the University of Hawaiʻi has played a central role in their intellectual and professional growth will reflect upon their experiences and positions as “Japan’s Americanists.”
