China's role in the First World War has been a curiously neglected
topic. This book is the first full-length study of China's
involvement in the conflict from perspectives of international
history, using largely unknown archival materials from China,
France, Germany, UK, and USA. It explains why China wanted to join
the war and what were its contributions to the war effort and the
emerging world order in the postwar period. The book also
demonstrates that China's participation in the First World War was
not only a defining moment in modern Chinese and world history, but
also the beginning of China's long journey toward
internationalization. In this groundbreaking and provocative book,
Professor Xu adds a new dimension to our collective memory of the
war, its tragedy and its significance, and restores the China war
memory into its rightful place.
