国际劳动节前夕,劳动午报社新媒体部与劳动者周末的记者到街头进行采访调查.他们把不同时代的,有典型性的劳动模范照片印在展板上,把这些劳动模范当年说的话印在展板上,请路人辨认的同时谈谈对这些劳动模范的看法,希望以此了解大众对劳动精神,对劳模人物的共识;了解劳动光荣的精神传承到今天,在百姓心中是什么分量. 看到这张照片,相信许多人的心底都会涌出一个字:赞!看到媒体有这样的调查,相信许多人都会想到那个词:应该!我们确实应该擦擦岁月蒙在这些劳动模范身上的浮尘,让他们更加清晰,让劳动光荣的精神为我们今天的工作充气,让我们深深地记住他们,记住这些走在每个时代前面的人.     

Goodbye,Postsocialism!

Abstract

This article assesses the trajectory of postsocialism as a concept and mounts a fivefold critique of postsocialism as: referring to a vanishing object; emphasising rupture over continuity; falling into a territorial trap; issuing from orientalising knowledge construction; and constraining political futures. This critique serves to sketch the contours of an alternative project that still recognises difference but foregrounds links and continuities, develops a political edge, and theorises not just about but with and from this part of the world.
