Modern East Asian Fiction
Social criticism refers to the practice of exposing and challenging societal flaws and injustices through various forms of expression, including literature, art, and public discourse. It serves as a vehicle for authors to reflect on their cultures, address issues such as inequality and corruption, and provoke thought or inspire change within their communities. This practice has been especially influential in shaping modern narratives in East Asian fiction, where Western literary techniques and themes have intertwined with local contexts to critique social norms and political structures.
