Dialectic of the Chinese Revolution: From Utopianism to Hedonism Paperback - 1994 - 1st Edition
by Jiwei CI
From the rear cover
"Chinese thinkers and western sinologists alike document the corruption and depravity of post-Mao China and survey the cataclysmic events of recent history which brought about that crisis. Ci Jiwei, however, probes its spiritual dimension, and he does it masterfully. . . . He has produced a work of profound philosophical reflection and great analytical sophistication."--Canadian Journal of History

Description:
Paperback / softback. New. Looking at the history of communist China as a history of consciousness, this book makes an innovative departure from previous studies. It charts a journey that led from utopianism to nihilism and then to the hedonism and consumerism that pervade China today.

In this transition, which the author describes as the path from faith to cynicism, Marxism became China's road to capitalism. Each essay approaches the topic from a different viewpoint: the consequences of creating revolutionary expectations, the destruction of historical memory and traditional culture, the paralysis of will resulting from continual failures, the contradiction between means and goals, the effects of continually deferring returns on…
