I went to a really inspirational seminar at law school last night with Prof. Fei-Ling Wang talking about current USA/China relations. Meant to write a post about all the things it made me think of, like the asymmetrical power relationship, the crisis of state reflection, the duplicitous exterior reflections of sovereignty  and the contrast in Westphalia and tian-xia systems but the minute I get on tumblr I just get caught up in the mass consumerist materialist culture that embodies the West and end up reblogging silly ironic pictures. jebus.
