Most of the phenomena described in this book have arisen as a result of various crises, disasters, threats, and forms of violence (such as wars, refugee crises, and political regimes, but also devastating practices of the anthropogenic drive and environmental pollution). Others are a form of response to new political, social and cultural changes that we are experiencing due to the rapid development of technology or progressive economic stratification. The research perspective proposed in Postcollectivity draws on the authors' approaches, combining academic and theoretical discourse with social engagement and artistic practice with critical thought.

Postcollectivity designates the transition phase between the disintegration of traditionally understood collectives (people who act together and produce goods or resources) and a move towards emerging contemporary communication models, forms of knowledge production and sharing practices needed to regain agency in crises.

Despite enormous differences between Asia and Eastern Europe, there are striking similarities between the peaceful, spontaneous, urban-based and cross-class democratic uprisings against unyielding dictatorships that have occurred in the two regions. The book explores the kind of non-democratic regimes that are particularly vulnerable to democratic revolutions. It examines why and how democrats rebel and what the results of democratic revolutions have been. Questions posed in this book include: * Why were communist rulers shot in China but not in Eastern Europe? * Why did stolen elections lead to the overthrow of Miloevic in Serbia? * Why have there been so many women leading democratic revolutions in Asia? This book attempts to democratize theories of revolution and revolutionize democratic transitions. Cases and comparisons are drawn from 15 democratic revolutions over the last two decades and the book includes in-depth studies of East Germany, China, Serbia and the Philippines.

Professor Stepan Kryvoruchko PhD is a scholar who believes that Aborigin, an area soiled by ruination, is inflicted with psychological infections. Viruses were killing individuality. Aborigin’s Superior Leader, a dictator and tyrant who designed a crematory with a network of labor camps, has moved modern Aborigine back to Golden Horde time. As a collective imposes its doctrine on the population, no one knows what is next. Aaron Kaufman has the misfortune of living in Aborigin. Although atrocities have taken the lives of millions including many of his relatives, Aaron has somehow managed to survive. Unfortunately, lies are everywhere. The collective has created double standards in an attempt to alter the nature of man. While the doctrine speaks of the birth of a new, refined man and declared rogues as socially friendly, the collective creates competitions for terrestrials while developing a system of pacifying rebels. Now only time will tell if Aaron find a way to escape the ruthless collective and carve out a new life for himself and whether Professor Kryvoruchko will somehow find the reason for the infection that is plaguing the people of Aborigin. In this science fiction tale, a professor and a young man living in an area devastated by a ruthless dictator embark on separate journeys to learn the truth about themselves and their destinies.

For seven years in the 1970s, the author lived in a village in northeast China as an ordinary farmer. In 1989, he returned to the village as an anthropologist to begin the unparalleled span of eleven years’ fieldwork that has resulted in this book—a comprehensive, vivid, and nuanced account of family change and the transformation of private life in rural China from 1949 to 1999. The author’s focus on the personal and the emotional sets this book apart from most studies of the Chinese family. Yan explores private lives to examine areas of family life that have been largely overlooked, such as emotion, desire, intimacy, privacy, conjugality, and individuality. He concludes that the past five decades have witnessed a dual transformation of private life: the rise of the private family, within which the private lives of individual women and men are thriving.

Experimental poetry and prose by black writers rejects traditional interpretations of social protest and identity formation to reveal radical new ways of perceiving the world. Winner, 2016 William Sanders Scarborough Prize, Modern Language Association Standard literary criticism tends to either ignore or downplay the unorthodox tradition of black experimental writing that emerged in the wake of protests against colonization and Jim Crow–era segregation. Histories of African American literature likewise have a hard time accounting for the distinctiveness of experimental writing, which is part of a general shift in emphasis among black writers away from appeals for social recognition or raising consciousness. In Freedom Time, Anthony Reed offers a theoretical reading of "black experimental writing" that presents the term both as a profound literary development and as a concept for analyzing how writing challenges us to rethink the relationships between race and literary techniques. Through extended analyses of works by African American and Afro-Caribbean writers—including N. H. Pritchard, Suzan-Lori Parks, NourbeSe Philip, Kamau Brathwaite, Claudia Rankine, Douglas Kearney, Harryette Mullen, and Nathaniel Mackey—Reed develops a new sense of the literary politics of formally innovative writing and the connections between literature and politics since the 1960s. Freedom Time reclaims the power of experimental black voices by arguing that readers and critics must see them as more than a mere reflection of the politics of social protest and identity formation. With an approach informed by literary, cultural, African American, and feminist studies, Reed shows how reworking literary materials and conventions liberates writers to push the limits of representation and expression.
