China and The West
This penetrating study of China’s social and cultural contacts with the West, first published in 1979, analyses the early images that China and the West had of one another, and the illusions and misconceptions that arose from these images. The book centres on the question, why did China fail to become modernised through contact with the West before the 1930s? The author examines the roles played by the agents of change – emigrants, missionaries, …
The Nationalist Era in China, 1927–1949
In recent years historians of China have focused increased attention on the critical decades of National rule on the mainland. This recent scholarship has substantially modified our understanding of the political events of this momentous period, shedding light on the character of Nationalist rule and on the sources of the Communist victory in 1949. Yet no existing textbook on modern China presents the events of the period according to these new f…
Making Revolution
In this challenging work, Agnes Heller distills the essence of a political and philosophical standpoint worked out over the course of a productive and illustrious career. Containing both new and previously published pieces, this volume serves as an introduction to Heller's extensive oeuvre. Her concerns with the 'vulnerability' of modernity raise fundamental questions. the political, economic, and moral institutions established by the West meet t…
The Story and History of the Long March
State Economic Policies of the Ch'ing Government, 1840-1895
In the decade preceding and in those following the Opium War of 1840 and 1841, China's position in international trade was reversed - from that of a sizeable surplus per year to that of a large deficit. The cause was, at first, the import of immense quantities of opium and the aftermath, the outflow of silver. China is not a silver-producing country, but silver was used as a currency side by side with the copper cash. The efflux of silver resulte…

Defining Chinese Warlords and Their Factions
The warlords of twentieth-century china have received little scholarly attention.". This omission is due, apart from the reasons viven in Mr. Sheridan's 'Preface', to the historical significance of the men and their period not being fully appreciated. What sort of men were they ? How did they rise to such great power? What effect did their abuse of power have on Chinese society ? Why did the May Fourth Movement, the Washington Conference, the fou…
Sung bronzes-an economic analysis
The question under discussion here is both perplexing and easy, a paradox arising from the scarcity of precisely datable Sung bronzes. Because of the scarcity of such bronzes, art historians have not succeeded in forming a definite view about their quality, casting, and designs; however, it may be possible for specialists in other fields to say something about them. Unfortunately, records, too, are scanty. Under such circumstances, we may be just…

This is a study of the social and economic functions of Chinese secret societies between the age of rebellions, 1850-1878, and the Boxer Uprising. The rebellions and their ensuing peaceful reconstruction of Chinese society brought important changes to both the secret societies and Chinese society at large. These are analyzed in detail in this essay. By so doing, the essay attempts to throw some light on the mechanism and processes of the structur…

The Hsien-Fêng Inflation
Three details of the background ought to be explained before we come to discuss the subject itself: (1) the bimetallism of the Ch'ing currency; (2) the rigidity of the Ch'ing fiscal system; and (3) the financial stringency at the end of the Tao-kuang period

The last emperor of China
The publication of P'u-yi's autobiography is an occasion of great importance, not merely to sinologists and historians, but also to sociologists and political scientists, for the book contains a wealth of valuable information about the recent past of China, life in the Manchu court, particularly that of the author, and the technique of political education adopted by the Chinese Communists. The book itself is a unique document in two respects-it i…
