Hi @USC folks: if you/r students need a summer class, I& #39;m teaching AMST 220 on "Neoliberalism and/as Asian American Culture."

We& #39;ll be talking about human capital, free market imperialism, and (Asian) American cultural productions.

Here& #39;s some of the things I& #39;ll be teaching:
Middle-class consumption as culture and politics, and what I& #39;m calling "Boba Neoliberalism." This includes foodies on Instagram and Tiktok, YouTube shows on Asian American food, and the gentrification of boba in California.
A unit on what I& #39;m calling Model Minority Capitalists. Yes, I& #39;m teaching Bling Empire and Amy Chua.

Universities as nodes for human capital formation, the racial form of which is the Asian. (Here, I& #39;m thinking through the works of @paulnadal_ and @iykoday.)

Teaching Crazy Rich Asians (NYU) and the Fung Bros (on the UCLA/USC rivalry).

If I can fit it, a unit on Asian content creators on the Internet (e.g. YouTube vloggers, musicians, Flash videos), and how cultural representation really means political economy.

This might age me a bit, but here& #39;s who we might talk about:

Maybe something on emasculation and hypermasculinity. Working title for the unit is "from small dicks to stud muffins."

Will end on Asian American capitalism as political ideology, from neoliberal democrats, to diverse imperialists, to fascists.

Anyway, hoping to get this course up and running, so if you or anyone you know might be interested, would love to have you enrolled.
There& #39;s also funding at @USC to be able to take additional summer courses because of the pandemic!

For folks asking about auditing, I think my institution is quite strict about those rules. But if people are interested, and if the class goes well (if it& #39;s even enrolled in at all), would really love to turn this into something accessible. In the meantime, here& #39;s a bibliography:
