The making of this volume would not have been possible had we not received generous support and encouragement from institutions and many generous souls. The editors are grateful for all the contributors who had faith in this project and shared their finest research with us. We worked together during the extremely challenging time that posed numerous problems on private, communal, and social lives. We thank them for their time, mutual support, encouragement, and collective spirit, all of which were essential in completing the volume. The Asian Studies Program at the Penn State University, Graduate School of Humanities at Nagoya University, and the Faculty of Management at the University of British ColumbiaOkanagan campuswere always supportive and intellectually stimulating homes. Special thanks to our professional editors, Nina and Paul, for their professionalism, patience, and expertise that made this edited volume possible. Last, but not least, we would like to express our thankfulness to our families in the United States, Japan, Canada, Korea, the Peoples Republic of China (PRC), Hong Kong, and Taiwan.
