The paper seeks to advance this argument by analyzing her book in three stages. First, the paper follows the perspective in Langvad's book. It is titled Hun er vred: Et vidnesbyrd om transnational adoption (which translates as She is angry: A testimony of transnational adoption). The subtitle guides my discussion of the book and its description of transnational adoption from South Korea to Denmark. Second, the paper interprets Langvad's book within the context of the economic renaissance of East Asia. I emphasize a shift in the balance of economic power between Denmark and South Korea, Europe and East Asia, as a significant background. The final section discusses her book as a form of counterculture that sidesteps notions of identity and emphasizes processes of becoming. The theoretical paradigm that informs the paper is a Foucauldian dispositive analysis, which organizes the sections of the paper under the general headings of discourse, power, and subjectivity. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Inter-Asia Cultural Studies is the property of Taylor & Francis Ltd and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
