Content:
This is a study of China from the 1800s to the present day. It focuses on China's problems of development - the decay and collapse of the Chinese Empire, its failure to recover in the first half of the twentieth century, and its rapid emergence in world affairs since the Communist Party Revolution of 1949. This new edition draws from recently opened archival research to examine economic growth, update Chinese foreign policy, and to offer a revised account of theTiananmen Incident, also bringing the chronology up to date.
