Description

Explore the changing landscape of global politics with China and Orientalism: Western Knowledge Production and the PRC. Part of the Postcolonial Politics series, this book by Routledge examines a new form of Sinological orientalism currently at work in the world. Rather than focusing on essential differences, the text argues that modern discourse has shifted toward a logic of sameness or general equivalence. It tracks how China undergoes a process of becoming similar to the USA and the West, reflecting the cultural logic of modern capitalism. This work provides a deep look into how orientalism has migrated into area studies and the pax Americana. Readers will gain a better understanding of how globalization, the liberal triumph at the end of history, and the demonization of the PRC shape our current era. This book is an essential resource for those studying the afterlives of colonial discourse and the evolution of western knowledge production in a globalized world.
