Description:
The Melancholy of Kinship in Post-reform China and Postcolonial Literature, brings post-reform Chinese cultural texts into conversation with postcolonial novels from Africa and Asia to examine the shared experiences of kinship loss as a response to historical trauma, state violence, and socioeconomic dispossession.Looking beyond E****urocentric paradigms of kinship shaped by Western liberalism, structural anthropology, and Freudian-informed psychoanalysis, this book argues that literary and cultural spheres of the Global South are reclaiming kinship as a form of political sociality rooted in decolonial traditions, precisely through mourning its loss. Ultimately**, it** draws attention to the ways that narratives from the Global South open up new possibilities for emancipation in a postsocialist and postcolonial world marked by enduring and emerging forms of unfreedom.
