Abstract | Ideas in social action tend to begin with economic reactions against the mistreatment of the laboring class, and they often seek to liberate them an and provide upward social mobility. They also call attention to the political engineering and control of society. Forces of discontent and discord are always assembled or self-organized in such a way that they are able to devise different modes of resistance and retaliation. Propaganda is central to the communication and mediation with the masses, who are increasingly seen as enabled and networked bodies in society. The rationalization of the economy and labor would eventually be taken towards the rationalizing of production, ownership, education, and even aesthetics. Social movements are always political and ideological by nature, but the ways in which they manifest themselves tend to be less well understood within the spatial disciplines. This introduction not only situates the operative nature of each social action, but also draws upon parallel histories in the production of social spaces in China. |
