From the time of China's defeat in the Sino-Japanese war of 1894-95
until the 1930s, the assumption that China was a "weak state"
dominated political discourse in China and beyond. In those
discussions, China was seen as lacking competitiveness in a world
that was increasingly being understood in harsh Darwinian terms.
Aiming to better understand contemporary China's self-image and
identity, this volume traces both the emergence of the narrative of
China's alleged "national ruin" and the discursive construction of
China as the "Sick Man of East Asia."
