James M. Polachek is an international markets analyst working for Baring Securities, Inc., in New York City
Why did defeat in the Opium War not lead Ch'ing China to a more realistic appreciation of Western might and Chinese weakness? James Polachek's revisionist analysis exposes the behind-the-scenes political struggles that not only shaped foreign-policy decisions in the 1830s and 1840s but have continued to affect the history of Chinese nationalism in modern times.
Polachek looks closely at the networks of literati and officials, self-consciously reminiscent of the late Ming era that sought and gained the ear of the emperor. Challenging the conventional view that Lin Tse-hsu and his supporters were selfless patriots who acted in China's best interests, Polachek agrues that, for reasons having more to do with their own domestic political agenda, these men advocated a futile policy of militant resistance to the West. Linking political intrigue, scholarly debates, and foreign affairs, local notables in Canton and literati lobbyists in Perking this book sets the Opium War for the first times in its "inner," domestic political context.

现在看是很一般的研究,1991年出版的书,研究应该是80年代完成的,那时候茅海建还在吭哧吭哧读档案呢。海外汉学研究其实是为了让美国知识界了解中国,并不是要跟中国学者竞争,中国学者不如海外汉学,那才是丢人。
