The authors in this volume believe that long-term, profound, and
sometimes tumultuous changes in the last five hundred years of the
history of China have been no less geographical than social,
political, or economic. From the dialectics of local-empire
relations to the imperial state's persistent array of projects for
absorbing and transforming ethnic regions on the margins of empire;
from the tripling of imperial territories in the Qing to the
disputes over the identity of the former "outer zones" in the early
Republican era; and from the universalistic imagination of
"all-under-heaven" to the fraught processes of re-drawing a new set
of nation-state boundaries in the twentieth century, the study of
the dynamics of geography, broadly conceived, promises to provide
insight into the contested development of the geographical entity
which we, today, call 'China.'
