Based mainly on Russian and Chinese archival sources that have become available only since the early 1990s, the authors of this collection explore the main aspects of the Chinese Revolution in the crucial period of the 1920s, such as the United Front policy, the development of communism, the Guomindang perspective, institutional issues and social movements. The various approaches and interpretative methods employed by the contributors from seven countries have resulted in a collection of articles representing four very different and until now almost independent discourses: the European, the American, the Chinese, and the Russian.
This book offers research on state and society in Republican China, exploring various aspects of Republican history from the governance perspective. Governance is understood in a broader sense as interactions between state and society, including both the discursive process of social decision-making and the provision of (non-)material public goods. The topics highlighted are: the internationalization of disaster relief, the philanthropic governance of overseas Chinese in Xiamen, the transformation of the cultural group "World Society," historical writing, intellectual autonomy, as well as the construction of warlord identity.

Networks ranging from village level to transnational level have always played a crucial role in Chinese society. The contributors to this volume aim to trace the interaction between various networks which have existed from the 19th century to the present day. The articles deal with theoretical concepts, historical examples, such as non-state responses to the North China Famine (1876 - 1879), the role of missionaries in the modernization of China and disaster management, including recent inter-ethnic business competition in Hong Kong, Han settlers in Xinjiang, temple festivals in Macau and urban migrants' social networks in today's China. By drawing on new material and theoretical frameworks, these studies shed fresh light on the ways in which various forms of networks have shaped Chinese society, while at the same time questioning traditional and rigid perspectives of Chinese society based solely on networks and guanxi.
Deutschland und China sind im Verlauf der vergangenen hundert Jahre immer wieder in vielfaltige Beziehungen zueinander getreten. Wie sich diese gestaltet haben und welche welt- und landesgeschichtlichen Wirkungen davon ausgingen, wird in dieser sechs Bande umfassenden Quellensammlung fur den Zeitraum 1897 bis 1995 dargestellt. Die Bande sind chronologisch angelegt. Ihre Aufteilung folgt den von der Geschichte vorgegebenen Zasuren, aber auch sachlichen Gesichtspunkten. Dem wechselvollen Verlauf der Geschichte der deutsch-chinesischen Beziehungen entsprechend, sind die Schwerpunkte in den einzelnen Banden unterschiedlich gesetzt. Gemeinsam aber ist allen der Versuch, den deutschen Blick auf China und den chinesischen Blick auf Deutschland, die politischen, wirtschaftlichen, militarischen und kulturellen Beziehungen als interkulturelles Geschehen zu dokumentieren. Die Mehrzahl des prasentierten Quellenmaterials deutscher und chinesischer Herkunft wird hier erstmals publiziert. Nahezu alle chinesischen Dokumente werden zum ersten Mal in einer deutschen UEbersetzung vorgelegt.
