Über diesen Titel

Críticas

"Tsin's book is well organized, refreshingly concise, and ... highly readable." -- Journal of Asian Studies "For researchers carrying up-to-date toolkits into the Chinese past, Tsin's judicious analysis will be a model of clarity in exposition as well as a guide to the formation of China modernist discourses on national and social revolution." -- Canadian Journal of History "Stanford University Press has produced yet another handsome volume, replete with photographs, a map, a graph, a character list, an extensive bibliography, and an index, all of which make this book a pleasure to use." * China Review International * "In this elegantly written and meticulously researched study, Tsin uses a social history of early 20th-century Canton to explore the meaning and mechanisms of the political culture of modernity. One of the book's great strengths is Tsin's success in bringing social-historical and theoretical analyses together, using one to illuminate the other." -- Journal of Interdisciplinary History
