    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    Wang Hui is a significant contemporary Chinese thinker and a key representative of Chinese New Left thought. This article provides a critical review of some of the themes that emerge from Wang's The End of Revolution as a means of situating his position in China's intellectual landscape, with a particular mind to exploring the historicity of Wang's thought as it informs his views. The essay engages some of the key discursive threads in The End of Revolution and provides a critical overview of Wang's positions on neoliberalism, the tension between Western articulations of modernity and China's own self-image.
