Within Asia, the period from 1840s to 1960s had witnessed the rise
and decline of Pax Britannica, the growth of multiple and often
competing anti-colonial movements, and the entrenchment of the
nation-state system. Beyond Pan-Asianism seeks to demonstrate the
complex interactions between China, India, and their neighbouring
societies against this background of imperialism and nationalist
resistance. The contributors to this volume, from India, the West,
and the Chinese-speaking world, cover a tremendous breadth of
figures, including novelists, soldiers, intelligence officers,
archivists, among others, by deploying published and archival
materials in multiple Asian and Western languages. This volume also
attempts to answer the question of how China-India connectedness in
the modern period should be narrated. Instead of providing one
definite answer, it engages with prevailing and past
frameworks-notably 'Pan-Asianism' and 'China/India as Method'-with
an aim to provoke further discussions on how histories of
China-India and, by extension the non-Western world, can be
conceptualized.
