Desde este enfoque, la comprensión de determinado tipo de cine es una vía para adquirir un mayor entendimiento de la ideología a la que pertenece, así como la comprensión de determinada ideología en su conjunto es una vía para un mayor entendimiento de los elementos que la componen, entre ellos el cine. A nivel metodológico, en primer lugar propongo mi propia definición del concepto de “ideología” partiendo de algunas de las aproximaciones de Plamenatz (1983), Eagleton (1997), Žižek (2003) y Kellner (2011). En base a esta definición, articulo una metodología de “análisis ideológico” del cine partiendo de algunas de las concepciones de Thompson (1984, 2002), Zavarzadeh (1991) y Kellner (1993; 2011). El núcleo de esta metodología es la lectura de las películas como textos cuyos elementos internos sirven a los intereses externos de determinados grupos sociopolíticos en una relación de poder significativa con otros grupos sociopolíticos. En el caso que nos ocupa, esto implica fundamentalmente decodificar las líneas de continuidad que conectan el cine de la Nūberu Bāgu con otros componentes ideológicos de la Nueva Izquierda japonesa, así como con la ideología de dicho grupo sociopolítico en su conjunto, opuesta principalmente a la Vieja Izquierda japonesa. Para llevar a cabo el “análisis ideológico” de la Nūberu Bāgu, selecciono una muestra de dos películas paradigmáticas a través de las cuales discernir una serie de elementos característicos de dicha corriente cinematográfica que permitan configurar un modelo para abordarla como una parte integrante de la ideología de la Nueva Izquierda japonesa, pudiendo este modelo servir para estudios posteriores. Se trata de Eros + Masacre (Erosu purasu Guakusatsu, 1969), de Yoshida Kijū, y Tira los libros, sal a la calle (Sho o suteyo machi e deyō, 1971), de Terayama Shūji. Son películas estrenadas en momentos históricos con implicaciones significativamente distintas y filmadas por directores con sensibilidades divergentes, pero precisamente estas discontinuidades 5 facilitan la demostración de que ambas obras contienen un núcleo de características estable que permiten establecer un modelo unitario (bajo el nombre de Nūberu Bāgu), perteneciente a una ideología unitaria (bajo el nombre de Nueva Izquierda). El “análisis ideológico” de la Nūberu Bāgu llevado a cabo en este estudio consta de tres fases. En la primera fase, en primer lugar presento el enfoque metodológico del “análisis ideológico” del cine en contraposición al del cine nacional; a través de esta contraposición, se entenderá mejor la conveniencia del “análisis ideológico” a la hora de abordar el cine. En segundo lugar, abordo el contexto de las relaciones de poder del Japón de la época en que surgió la Nūberu Bāgu, expongo las características generales de la ideología de la Nueva Izquierda japonesa, y a continuación analizo Eros + Masacre decodificando las conexiones entre el texto de la película y esta ideología en su conjunto (de la que forma parte como componente doctrinal). En la segunda fase investigo la relación entre el cine de la Nūberu Bāgu, continuando con el caso ilustrativo de Eros + Masacre, y la conciencia colectiva imperante en la Nueva Izquierda japonesa de la importancia de la subjetividad humana (shutaisei) concebida como autonegación del sujeto (jiko hitei) (y que constituye un componente subjetivo de esta ideología). Para ello, me centro en dos aspectos clave del cine de Yoshida Kijū a través de los cuales despliega su visión de la subjetividad como autonegación: el espacio y la memoria. En la tercera fase, relaciono analíticamente la teoría política de uno de los pensadores más importantes en la conformación de la Nueva Izquierda japonesa, Yoshimoto Takaaki, y la concepción del cine de Terayama Shūji, a través del caso ilustrativo de su película Tira los libros, sal a la calle. En esta fase me fijo en cómo Yoshimoto a través de la teoría política y Terayama a través de la práctica del cine, expresan una visión similar de la relación entre la figura del intelectual y las masas, pudiendo estas expresiones ser consideradas parte del mismo cuerpo

  • Chapter 5: Residents' Activism, Sasebo 1968
    Chapter 5: Residents’ activism, Sasebo 1968 There was a strong sense of both trepidation and anticipation in Japan as the small town of Sasebo set itself to receive the USS Enterprise, a nuclear powered aircraft carrier, in January 1968. Thousands of protesters, peace organizations and political parties had come from all over the country for the occasion. The media were in a frenzy over the impending visit and newspapers were bustling with political debate and commentary concerning the aircraft carrier, and warnings about the probability of student violence. As student groups congregated at the major train stations around Japan and prepared themselves for the journey to Fukuoka and then on to Sasebo, the debates flared up over the implications and the acceptability of the visit, and speculation about the events that were set to unfold. In the meantime the government was busily trying to hose down the significance of the port call and pre-empt the trouble that was expected from the gathering protestors. On entering the port of Sasebo, a small town 50km north of Nagasaki in Ky ūsh ū, the massive aircraft carrier was piercing the heart of a small community and challenging the values that underpinned that community. The port call represented what political scientist Maruyama Masao may have called an ‘axis-of-definition’ – an incident in which the time and space of the nation became transformed in one week and one small town. It was an ‘axis-of-definition’ in which one village became representative of all villages in the archipelago, and one week during which the ‘national imaginary,’ the postwar identity of Japan, was being (re)narrated.

  • Words and Lesions: Epistemological Reflections on Violence and Lessons
    Darko Suvin Words and lesions: epistemological reflections on violence and lessons of the 1968 moment (with particular reference to Japan) Presuppositions 0.1 The question for our conference fifty years after the 1968 youth protest wave is how to contribute to its evaluation today. First, I assume that the revolted young people – and at least in Japan, USA, and France many citizens – were right in what they were against: to begin with, the US war in Vietnam, a catalyst for all else. If so, what else were they precisely against and how? Moreover, what kind of revolution in which fields were they for, how clearly? And while honouring their important contribution to ending the war in Vietnam, which led to a number of par- tial improvements, how do we evaluate the undoubted pragmatic failure of other main objectives? My approach is necessarily tentative, itself im- mersed into a history that flows; it is a hypothetical imperative and ep- istemic method for better understanding.1 0.2 To get at some useful presuppositions, I begin with two of the best en- capsulations I know, from two of the best minds of the twentieth century Left, which could provide criteria for situations such as those in 1968. The first is Lenin’s characterisation of what is a revolutionary situation: its necessary factors are that the ruled classes no longer want the existing order and the ruling class/es are no longer able to maintain it. The second is Gramsci’s distinction between a revolutionary war of posi- tion (as in World War I trenches) and a war of manoeuvre (as in Napole- onic wars or Trotsky’s leading the Red Army) (Gramsci, 237).
