Bøker av Elizabeth J. Remick

This book examines the Nanjing decade of Guomindang rule (1927-1937) and the early post-Mao reform era (1980-1992) of Chinese history that have commonly been viewed as periods of state disintegration or retreat. And they were-at the central level. When reexamined at the local level, however, both are revealed as periods of state building.
