Description

In the last two decades of the twentieth century Chinese intellectuals underwent several ideological divisions, among which the ideological dispute between liberalism and the New Left in the last part of the 1990s was especially provocative. (1) The dispute was not a purely academic argument over metaphysical problems, but a serious contemplation on important issues concerning Chinese modernity, which, in the wake of more than 20 years' reform and open-door policy, have aroused the greatest interest in young and middle-aged intellectuals, among whom are sociologists, scholars of political science, philosophers, men of letters, economists, and even government officials and political leaders. They have deployed themselves into a confrontation with the New Left on the offense and the liberals on the defense. (2) The New Left has drawn on the Western leftwing academia for intellectual resources, mainly cultural pluralism and national consciousness heatedly discussed in the international stream of globalization (Ren). On the other hand, those who are on their defense, that is, the liberals, are endeavoring to refute the charges from the left, trying hard to delimit the contour of their theories and to specify the credibility and effectiveness of their liberalist ideas. The differences between the political claims of the two parties repay detailed analysis because underlying their theoretical logic and the realistic judgments over various crucial issues are their attitudes toward globalization, both economical and cultural, but our focus in this essay will be upon the New Left's resistance against globalization although the left-liberal context remains indispensable.
