In Postsocialist Conditions: Idea and History in China's
"Independent Cinema," 1988-2008, WANG Xiaoping offers a
comprehensive survey and trenchant critique of China's "Independent
Cinema" by the sixth-generation auteurs. By showing the
multi-valence of the postsocialist conditions in contemporary
Chinese society, their films articulate a new cultural-political
logic in postsocialist China, which is also the logic of the market
in this era of neoliberal transformation, brought about by the
forces of marketization since the late 1980s. The directors
laudably show the spirits of humanism and the humanitarian concerns
of the underclass, yet the shortage and repudiation of class
analysis prohibits the artists from exploring the social
contradictions and the cause of class restructuration.
