Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "[A] smart take on modern Chinese nationalism" (Foreign Policy). Bill Hayton tells the story of how China came to think of itself as Chinaand what it means for our world today In this compelling and highly-readable account, Hayton shows how Chinas present-day geopolitical problemsthe fates of Hong Kong, Taiwan, Tibet, Xinjiang, and the South China Seawere born in the struggle to create a modern nation-state. He brings alive the fevered debates of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when reformers and revolutionaries adopted foreign ideas to invent a new vision of China. Ranging across history, nationhood, language, and territory, Hayton shows how a few radicals, often living in exile, adopted European beliefs about race and nation to rethink Chinas past and create a new future. He weaves together political and personal stories to show how Chinese nationalism emerged from the connections between east and west. These ideas continue to motivate and direct the countrys policies into the twenty first century. By asserting a particular version of the past Chinese governments have bolstered their claims to a vast territory stretching from the Pacific to Central Asia. A provocative account showing that Chinaand its 5,000 years of unified historyis a national myth, created only a century ago with a political agenda that persists to this day Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
