Transpacifica is a place where I explore the interactions between East Asia and the Americas. I'm a Ph.D. student in political science at the University of Washington in Seattle. I recently finished an A.M. in Regional Studies-East Asia at Harvard University. Frequent themes here are history in politics, Internet society, the environment, contemporary art, and international politics. Unavoidably, I sometimes veer off topic—even with a topic as large as the Pacific. —Graham [more]
