AB - This review essay on Zhaotian He’s book, Revolution/Post-Revolution: Reflection on the History, Thoughts, and Culture of China’s Rise, published in Taiwan in 2020, seeks a deep dialogue with Chinese intellectuals regarding the crisis of contemporary China. He illuminates ‘unconscious of thought’ as the gist of current China’s crisis, which occurred in the transition from the revolution to the post-revolution era. ‘Unconscious of thought’ refers to a conscious, mental, and emotional mechanism that blocks Chinese people from engaging in society by reorganizing the nation’s ideological axis from people-centered to party-and-elite-centered.
He analyzes this mechanism as two pillars, the minifying reconstruction of Mass Line and the formation of the New Enlightenment, and ultimately emphasizes that the Chinese people need to restore their lost idealism by reconnecting themselves with others and the world as a key to rebuilding popular politics from below.
