AbstractHistoryArchive Description

This article sketches shifts from postcolonial to diasporic/transnational frameworks and then considers some interactions with ecocriticism. Postcolonial analysis inspects relations between Asia and the Pacific hidden in labels such as 'the Asia Pacific region. Malaysia's investment in oil palm an logging is one keyt component, and colonial attitudes to nature and natives in Hugh Clifford's writing are compared to the environmentalist theme in Sharmini Flint's detective fiction.
