{"product_id":"critical-interventions-von-jr-san-juan","title":"CRITICAL INTERVENTIONS","description":"\u003cp\u003eSituating the crisis of the humanities in the terror-wars of global capitalism, E. San Juan opens up the field of critical theory to  unacknowledged counter-hegemonic impulses in selected writers  from Europe, Asia, and the United States. Composed as   interventions in the field of cultural studies, the essays attempt a dialectical fusion of  inventory and self-critique . By way of Pablo Neruda''s radical poetics, San Juan surveys the achievement of Filipino writers in an embattled U.S.neocolony, the  Philippines.  A provocative reappraisal of Asian American Studies is offered for heuristic dialogue in the wake of 9\/11 and the recent financial collapse. Using a comparative approach to Edward Said and Antonio Gramsci as a point of departure, San Juan initiates a  project of revaluation by deploying Charles Sanders Peirce''s semiotics to retrieve historical indices and institutional contexts of power. Excluded from orthodox post-colonial studies, the Philippine social formation with its manifold contradictions is remapped to  provide the scenario and narrative of the predicament of Euro-American bourgeois culture in this current conjuncture of neoliberal market barbarism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783843368544\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrom James Joyce and Henrik Ibsen to Charles Sanders Peirce and Maxine Hong Kingston\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783843368544","offer_id":39470042939485,"sku":"9783843368544","price":79.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/37e3df9d-60dd-46d8-82bb-e658bc1ae6fd.jpg?v=1776141448","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/critical-interventions-von-jr-san-juan","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
