AbstractThis essay is a response to the pieces collected for the special issue of American Literary History on economics and literature, with a particular focus on those dealing with the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. It makes two related arguments: first, that studies of the North American economy must center analyses of racial capitalism and settler colonialism as an inherent part of their work and not as an optional add-on. Secondly, I argue that the field of economics and literature loses much of its anti-capitalist potential when it allows the parameters of the debate to be set by the economy; that is, taking the terms of analysis, the texts for analysis, the methods of analysis, and suppositions about who can be read as an economic actor and what is an economic action from how they are defined by the economy precludes a disruption of these premises. I conclude by arguing for the importance of the aesthetic for reimaging the terms of the debate and offering a brief biography of writing on racial capitalism and settler colonialism that is already doing this work.

Economics And Literature

In much of the recent scholarship on economics and literature, the depth of insight is inversely proportional to the status claimed for literature as such. For example, Gary Saul Morson and Morton Schapiro’s Cents and Sensibility argues that economists need to read literary works for their great moral wisdom, and they fault literary scholars for ignoring this appeal and for failing to understand basic economics. But as this survey of recent publications demonstrates, the conjunction of these critiques is odd: literary critics have been skeptical of claims about genuine value precisely because they have attended so closely to the markets structuring cultural production. What ultimately stands out in recent scholarship on economics and literature is its turn away from complex accounts of the nature of literary form and its turn toward considerations of the representation of economic life.

This is an attempt to understand identity and integration in the Asia-Pacific region through the prism of tourism. Our study begins with a review of fields associated to travelling – from geography to economics and literature -and applies some important conclusions to the current dynamics of the Asian-Pacific zone. It also includes a thorough quantitative analysis, complete with t-statistics and ANOVA to test two main hypotheses. Our findings are astounding, because they elaborate on the mysterious nature of international flows, from capital to individuals to commodities. We deliver insightful conclusions on race, gender and sexualities, as well as the dynamics of integration within a comparative study of Taiwan and Japan. These conclusions rest on a total of 354 questionnaires that were completed, returned and analysed thanks to a research grant. It is hoped that this study of tourism will be found to be enlightening in the context of contemporary dynamics in the Asia-Pacific region. Keywords: identity, integration, Japan, Taiwan, tourism
