Postsocialist Politics and the Ends of Revolution
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-34205-4 (ISBN)
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.
