that shape contemporary urban developments in East Asia. Candidates should be able to teach on methods and theory in urban and digital studies, broadly defined. They should be comfortable adopting interdisciplinary approaches and be able to apply this knowledge
to cities in the East Asian region, particularly Japan and (South) Korea.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

with research approaches in area studies, driven by linguistic knowledge, cultural expertise, and a general curiosity for diverse human interactions in digital and urban spaces. Candidates should be able to communicate this focus to a wide audience and should
demonstrate an ability to engage with students and colleagues of Asian studies more broadly. Thematically, we are specifically interested in candidates who are able to teach and research on topics such as the following (in alphabetic order):<o:p></o:p></span></p>
