Pop Empires - Transnational and Diasporic Flows of India and Korea

"Bollywood" and "Hallyu" are increasingly competing with "Hollywood" - either replacing it or filling a void in places where it never held sway. This critical multidisciplinary anthology places the mediascapes of India, South Korea, and the US in comparative dialogue to explore the transnational flows of technology, capital, and labour.
