In so doing, it demonstrates that Marxist socialism is as relevant today as it was in the 1930s, just as social realist novels continue to thrive as a critique of capitalism. Readers will find valuable insights into the social significance, formal innovations, moral sensitivity, aesthetic enrichment, and ideological complexity of Canadian social realist novels. 606 $aCultural studies 606 $aPolitical economy 606 $aSex (Psychology) 606 $aGender expression 606 $aCultural Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22040 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 606 $aGender Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20090 615 0$aCultural studies. 615 0$aPolitical economy. 615 0$aSex (Psychology). 615 0$aGender expression. 615 14$aCultural Studies. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy. 615 24$aGender Studies. 676 $a155.33 676 $a300 676 $a306 676 $a339.5 700 $aChen$b John Z.
