Editorial Reviews

Review

"Reading Takeuchi... sheds light on key issues in discussions of postmodernism, nationalism, and postcolonialism." -- Choice



"Highly recommended as a valuable text." -- Steven Heine, Journal of Japanese Studies



Review

"Takeuchi Yoshimi is one of the most challenging and astute thinkers of modernity. While he searches for the emergence of critical awareness and freedom amid the restless movement of negation, he also issues a profound challenge to the politics of ressentiment that have plagued Japanýs and other non-Western's nations relation to the West. The appearance of his writings in English is a major event." -- Thomas Lamarre, McGill University
