Description

Modern China: A History by Routledge provides a comprehensive examination of China's dramatic transformation over the past century, from the overthrow of the Emperor in 1911 through decades of political upheaval and revolution. This authoritative account traces China's journey across multiple systems of governance, from Confucianist monarchy and warlordism to communist revolution and contemporary social-capitalism.
