This cutting edge study examines the career of Chinese politician
and diplomat Zhou Enlai (1898-1976) and assesses his leadership
role in the Communist Party of China's (CPC) strategy against the
Japanese invasion of China which established the foundation for
post-World War II Sino-Japanese relations. It considers how Zhou
dealt with Japanese imperialism during his midcareer, from the May
Fourth Movement to the formation of the second United Front between
the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) and the CPC against Japan,
which paved the way for the Chinese victory in the second
Sino-Japanese War. Addressing significant moments such as the
Manchurian Incident and the Xi'an Incident, it provides a
thought-provoking reexamination of Zhou's involvement in the May
Fourth Movement of 1919, the first national grassroots movement in
the modern history of China calling for anti-imperialism and
nationalism, and also of his time in Europe, as essential
background to understand the birth of the CPC and Zhou's role in
it, as well as Zhou's collaboration with Zhang Xueliang, the
culprit of the Xi'an Incident. Through an in-depth analysis of
primary sources, including Zhou's own writings, the oral history of
Chinese officials, and newly declassified diplomatic archives, this
work presents a comprehensive and accurate account of Zhou's career
against the backdrop of Japanese imperialism.
