Features: This book focuses on the issues of contemporary China and globalization. It emphasizes the "main theme" of contemporary China and records the author's perceptions of cultural changes in China. The editor of this book also follows this trajectory, taking China as the central axis, and selects texts from various perspectives such as aesthetics, cultural studies, media, and Western academic observations over the past decade. Starting from the relationship between aesthetics and Marxism, it reflects on the historical path of China's modernization over the past century. Amid the chaotic historical materials, it attempts to gain a glimpse of this heritage, which continues to have a profound impact on China, using an abstract yet historically grounded approach.
