Politics of subjectivity has become a major concern in postmodern politics. However, postmodern politics is hardly 'post' modern to the extent that politics of subjectivity and related discussion existed in pre-modern China as far back as the Chou (Zhou) dynasty. This paper traces the parallels between the School of Logicians in the Spring-Autumn Period and the postmodern school of the late 20th century and argues for the reactivation of the epistemology of the School of Logicians. This school reveals the delicate difference among political subjects at different places and times. Three approaches of politics of subjectivity are identified and empirical cases are provided accordingly. They are 'conquering,' as in the Meiji Restoration, 'withdrawing,' as in queer politics, and 'othering/self-alienating,' as in Taiwan's China policy. |
