In promoting the significance of utopian thought, Li stresses that the term for her study, ?post-utopian criticism,? is not the same as anti-utopian criticism, but an analytical approach to criticism in order to addresses the shortcomings of postmodern and postcolonial theories applied to contemporary China, and to open up interpretive space for the specific historical experience of its people and its utopian ideals. 410 0$aEast and West (Leiden, Netherlands).$x2467-9704 ;$vVolume 3. 606 $aWolves in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWolves in literature. 676 $a895.13/52 700 $aLi$b Xiaojiang$f1951-$0674566 702 $aGunn$b Edward Mansfield$cJr., 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910467237403321 996 $aWolf totem and the post-Mao utopian$91909741 997 $aUNINA
