Moving past the conflation of state socialism with all socialist
projects, this book opens up avenues for addressing socialist
projects rooted in decolonial and antiracist politics. To that end,
this anthology brings together scholarship across regions that
engages postsocialism as an analytic that connects the 'afters' of
the capitalist- socialist dynamic to present day politics.
Resisting the revolutionary teleology of what was before,
"postsocialism" can function to create space to work through
ongoing legacies of socialisms in the present. Looking at the
Middle East, Scandanavia, Korea, Romania, China, and the US, the
chapters in this book assess ongoing socialist legacies in new
ethical collectivities and networks of dissent opposing state- and
corporate- based military, economic, and cultural expansionism
since the end of the Cold War. The majority of the chapters in this
book were originally published as a special issue of the journal,
Social Identities.
