Modern China pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
China today is never out of the news: from human rights controversies and the continued legacy of Tiananmen Square, to global coverage of the Beijing Olympics, and the Chinese "economic miracle." It is a country of contradictions and transitions: a peasant society with some of the world's most futuristic cities, an ancient civilization that is modernizing as rapidly as possible, a walled-off nation that is increasingly at the center of world trade. This Very Short Introduction offers an indispensable starting point for anyone who needs to quickly know the themes and controversies that have shaped modern China. Prize-winning author and scholar Rana Mitter examines the modern history, politics, economy, and thriving cultural scene of contemporary China, and its relations with the wider world. This lively guide covers a range of social issues from the decline of footbinding and the position of women in society, to the influence of television and film, and the role of the overseas Chinese diaspora. It covers many prominent figures as well, such as the Communist leaders, the last emperors, and prominent writers and artists throughout China's history.
Rana Mitter is University Lecturer in the History and Politics of Modern China at the University of Oxford, and a Fellow of St Cross College. He is the author of The Manchurian Myth: Nationalism, Resistance and Collaboration in Modern China, and A Bitter Revolution: China's Struggle with the Modern World (OUP, 2004), for which he won the title Times Higher Education Young Academic Author of the Year 2005. The book was also runner-up for the Longman/History Today Book of the Year prize, a finalist for the British Academy Book Prize, and named by Foreign Affairs as one of five "must-read" Notable Books on China. He presents and comments regularly on radio and television, and his reviews and essays have appeared in the Financial Times, History Today, and London Review of Books.

評分中國走嚮現代的過程,是曖昧的。之所以說是曖昧,而不用灰色地帶,是想撇開一些既定的標準。誰曉得這曖昧裏會不會藏著新可能呢!正史和野史之外,看看外國學者比較客觀的描述,不管偏嚮的是哪一路,都有些解毒作用吧。

此书开篇便提出一个我们学那么多年历史都没思考过的问题,什么是“中国”,什么是“现代”,“中国人”又是指哪些人?(估计这些问题连那些自称爱国者的人都没有想过)外国的学术严谨可见一斑。还有一些历史课本上从来不说的,也没有什么政治问题的事实也从这里可以看到,例如...

評分正在读这本书,才读了十几页的时候,就发现很多观点和我们传统的历史和政治教育不同。从一个第三方的角度来看中国这一百多年走过的路,重新审视清朝的中国和民国时期的中国,让我对自己的国家的看法有了新的视野。 推荐此书,尤其对那些有志于为我们国家的发展,思考国家未来...
