China's Grandmothers
Over the past century and a half, China has experienced foreign invasion, warfare, political turmoil, and revolution, along with massive economic and technological change. Through all this change, there is one stable element: grandmothers, as child carers, household managers, religious devotees, transmitters of culture, and, above all, sources of love, warmth, and affection. In this interdisciplinary and longitudinal study, China's Grandmothers s…
Harry Livingstone’s Forgotten Men
Kristin Stapleton. Fact in Fiction
Ba Jin is the pen name of the enormously popular Chinese writer Li Yaotang. He was an iconoclast and an anarchist; his pen name is a combination of the names of the anarchists Bakunin and Kropotkin. Ba Jin’s most famous novels are the trilogy Turbulent Stream. They are set among a wealthy family in a provincial city in western China a decade after the revolution (of 1911) that brought the last dynasty to an end. The novels inspired two generation…
Kate Merkel-Hess. The Rural Modern
The word “modern” has several connotations for China. Often “modern” means the creation of cities, notably Shanghai, that replicate Western infrastructure, architecture, and institutions. Sometimes “modern” means new Chinese art and literature based on Western models. Sometimes “modern” means imported Western political ideologies, such as democracy or Marxism. In The Rural Modern: Reconstructing the Self and State in Republican China, Kate Merkel…

China and Japan at War
The Resistance War (Banian kangRi zhanzheng) of 1937-45 was one of the greatest upheavals in Chinese history. It was a time of courage and sacrifice and a time of suffering and loss. Virtually the entire country was engulfed by war. All of China's major cities were occupied, as were the eastern and northeastern regions and much of the southeast. The national government was forced to move inland. Almost every family and community was affected by w…
The Chinese People at War
Diana Lary, one of the foremost historians of the period, tells the tragic history of China's War of Resistance and its consequences from the perspective of those who went through it. Using archival evidence only recently made available, interviews with survivors, and extracts from literature, she creates a vivid and highly disturbing picture of the havoc created by the war, the destruction of towns and villages, the displacement of peoples, and …
The Chinese State at the Borders
In this ground-breaking study, Hsiao Ting Lin demonstrates that the Chinese frontier was the subject neither of concerted aggression on the part of a centralized and indoctrinated Chinese government nor of an ideologically driven nationalist ethnopolitics. Instead, nationalist sovereignty over Tibet and other border regions was the result of rhetorical grandstanding by Chiang Kai-shek and his regime. Tibet and Nationalist China’s Frontier makes a…

Provincial Patriots
China at War
In response to the leaders of China and Japan attacking each other for the way they deal with history, scholars from Japan, China, and the West held a conference in 2002, under the auspices of the Harvard Asia Center, to examine the Japanese invasion and occupation of China. The essays collected in this timely volume are the product of these scholars’ research on this historical problem. Delving deeply into the nature of the occupation, the autho…
China's Republic
Twenty-first century China is emerging from decades of war and revolution into a new era. Yet the past still haunts the present. The ideals of the Chinese Republic, which was founded almost a century ago after 2000 years of imperial rule, still resonate as modern China edges towards openness and democracy. Diana Lary traces the history of the Republic from its beginnings in 1912, through the Nanjing decade, the warlord era, and the civil war with…

The Tomb of the King of Nanyue-The Contemporary Agenda of History
In the midst of the brash international architecture of boomtown Guangzhou, a new structure derived from the classical Chinese tradition makes a strong impression. This is one of the few recent cultural adornments in a city dedicated to commerce. The massive building stands on a prime site, where the Great North Gate of Guangzhou once stood, its bulk accentuated by high, windowless walls of somber red stone. From the street level, twin flights of…

Creating the Zhuang
Drowned Earth
Early in the war of resistance against Japan, the Chinese military command used a tragic version of scorched-earth tactics: they denied access to the Japanese imperial army to a vast stretch of China not by literally scorching it but by drowning it. In June 1938 the Chinese command turned the ultimate symbol of Chinese civilization, the Yellow River, into a weapon of war. The southern dyke of the River was breached at Huayuankou (Flower Garden Mo…

As the richest cities in the world's most populous nation, Hong Kong and Shanghai have recently experienced dynamic growth spurred by more and better-managed capital. These cities also have social problems whose solutions will cost money. Their urban populations are aging. Health finance at the level these First World cities demand threatens to consume a large portion of the municipal budgets. Eldercare and social security are now less well cover…
