China's history tends to be studied from a national perspective
only. The Global and Regional in China's Nation-Formation attempts
to train our eyes to see the picture of China less as a
self-contained entity, a "geobody," than as part of a broader set
of global and regional processes; from the "outside-in." It covers
the major historical problems of China in the twentieth century,
namely imperialism, nationalism, state-building, religion and the
role of history
Part I views imperialism and nationalism in China from the
perspective of global and regional circulations and interactions.
It also examines the changing role of history over the twentieth
century from the same perspective. Part II focuses on how myth,
religion and Chinese conceptions of society and polity are
re-shaped by external influences and forces, as well as how these
internal practices themselves shape the external impact. Part III
is a comparative section, examining how global processes become
unique developments in China.
The Global and Regional in China's Nation-Formation is an ideal
resource for anyone studying China's history, society and
culture.
