Displaying the particular vitality of the global traditions of
Marxism and neomarxism at the beginning of the twenty-first
century, "New AsianMarxism"s collects essays by a diverse group of
scholars--historians, political scientists, literary scholars, and
sociologists--who offer a range of studies of the Marxist heritage
focusing on Korea, Japan, India, and China.
While some of these essays take up key thinkers in Marxist
history or draw attention to outstanding problematics, others focus
on national literature and discourse in North and South Korea, the
"Mao Zedong Fever" of the 1990s, the implications of Li Dazhao's
poetry, and the Indian Naxalite movement. Illustrating the
importance of central analytical categories like exploitation,
alienation, and violence to studies on the politics of knowledge,
contributors confront prevailing global consumerist fantasies
with accounts of political struggle, cultural displacement, and
theoretical strategies.
