From the time of China's defeat in the Sino-Japanese war of 1894-95 until the 1930s, the assumption that China was a "weak state" dominated political discourse in China and beyond. In those discussions, China was seen as lacking competitiveness in a world that was increasingly being understood in harsh Darwinian terms. Aiming to better understand contemporary China's self-image and identity, this volume traces both the emergence of the narrative of China's alleged "national ruin" and the discursive construction of China as the "Sick Man of East Asia."
