Summary: "How might political disillusionment define a new form of politics? Age of Disaffection explores this question by tracing how artists and intellectuals critiqued conventional forms of political engagement-from party organizing to protest in the street-in 1960s Japan. It argues that this critique produced an "ethos of disaffection" that made the transformation of self the basis for radical change. While studies of the 1960s tend to conceptualize politics in terms of contestation, Age of Disaffection foregrounds cultivation, or the production of ways of thinking and feeling in efforts to redefine the political itself. In doing so, it reveals how the cultural production of 1960s Japan confronted a crucial question that continues to vex efforts at radical change today: transform institutions or alter how people relate to themselves and others?"--Provided by publisher
