Action fight drama. Will (Zeb Crown) is a tough street kid who has just been released from a juvenile correctional facility. In an attempt to channel the boy's rage and give him a means of earning a living, Will's new foster father and brother introduce him to the world of amateur bare-knuckle fighting. Having lived on the street all his life, Will is a natural-born fighter and quickly rises through the ranks, but his fantasy of starting a normal life falls apart as he is drawn into the sport's darker side.

During the second half of the twentieth century the countries of East Asia saw one of the most remarkable transformations in human history, from overwhelmingly poor societies to global powerhouses of accumulation, proletarianisation and mega-urbanisation. This volume features Marxist scholars from East Asia and Europe who are pioneering a new approach to this transformation using the theory of state capitalism. The essays analyse the histories of countries on either side of the Cold War divide within the broader framework of twentieth century global capitalist expansion, while at the same time offering a sophisticated critique of Developmental State Theory. Contributors are: Tobias ten Brink, Gareth Dale, Jeong Seongjin, Michael Haynes, Kim Ha-young, Kim Yong-uk, Lee Jeong-goo, and Owen Miller
