Produktinformationen zu „The Wobbling Pivot, China since 1800 (PDF)“
This comprehensive but concise narrative of China since the
eighteenth century builds its story around the delicate
relationship between central government and local communities.
* Rejects the traditional view of China as a wholly harmonious
society based on principles of stability - the Unwobbling
Pivot of Ezra Pound's translation of the Chinese classic
Zhongyong
* Provides an original interpretation, arguing that developments
can be explained through an understanding of China's
surprising swings between centralization and decentralization,
between local initiative and central authoritarianism
* Serves as an introduction to the subject, while readers with a
background in Chinese history will find the book offers a personal
perspective and addresses long-standing interpretive issues
* Supported by a variety of timelines, maps, illustrations, and
extensive notes for further reading
* Places China's history within the context of global
change
