This colloquium aims to shed light on the phenomenon of the diffusion of Asian culture in the European context, in particular on four axes of interrogation: the production of cultural goods; the political competition in the global arena for cultural hegemony; glocalization, i.e., the adaptation of production to local contexts; and reception by consumers.

Themes
This international colloquium is the first scientific event to be organized in France on this subject, and aims to investigate this globalization of culture that comes from East Asia from 4 perspectives:
a) the production of cultural goods (within the framework of cultural capitalism);
b) the political competition in the global arena for cultural hegemony (through the use of soft power);
c) glocalization, i.e. the adaptation of production to local contexts (through the work of intermediaries);
d) and reception (by consumers who have become omnivorous, global or cosmopolitan).
