Bøker av Rebecca E. Karl

Rebecca E. Karl interrogates the concept and practice of "the economic" as it was understood in China in the 1930s and the 1980s and 90s, showing how the use of Eurocentric philosophies, narratives, and conceptions of the economic that exist outside lived experiences fail to capture modern China's complex history.

Describes Mao Zedongs life and thought in relation to the Chinese revolution and twentieth-century history.

Discusses how Chinese conceptions of nationalism were affected by the "discovery" of Hawaii as a centre of the Pacific, the Philippine revolution against the United States, and the relationship between nationality and ethnicity made apparent by the Boer War in South Africa.
