Description

Studies of China and Chineseness since the Cultural Revolution Volume 1: Reinterpreting Ideologies and Ideological ReinterpretationsHow did the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution affect everyone's lives?

Why did people re/negotiate their identities to adopt revolutionary roles and duties?

How did people, who lived with different self-understandings and social relations, inevitably acquire and practice revolutionary identities, each in their own light?This book plunges into the contexts of these concerns to seek different relations that reveal the Revolution's different meanings.

Furthermore, this book shows that scholars of the Cultural Revolution encountered emotional and intellectual challenges as they cared about the real people who owned an identity resource that could trigger an imagined thread of solidarity in their minds.The authors believe that the Revolution's magnitude and pervasive scope always resulted in individualized engagements that have significant and differing consequences for those struggling in their micro-context.

It has impacted a future with unpredictable collective implications in terms of ethnicity, gender, memory, scholarship, or career.

The Cultural Revolution is, therefore, an evolving relation beneath the rise of China that will neither fade away nor sanction integrative paths.
