Drawing on a host of countries from both regions, the contributions illustrate how encounters increasingly transcend fixed territorial categories at local, national and regional levels. While large-scale political and economic considerations tend to dominate in Asia-Africa related literature-for instance, in China-Africa, BRICS and South-South discourses-the current volume seeks to foster dialogue between these broader levels of analyses and more localized social practices and experiences, including the role of civil society, cultural production and migration. With an emphasis on the "trans" aspects of inter-regional exchange, the volume contributes to a better understanding of new forms of space-making between these two increasingly important regions.
