Description

An analysis and reference guide to the process and events of the Chinese Revolution. Seven essays discuss the Revolution from the first decades of the 20th century through to 1998. Ready-reference components include biographical sketches of the 17 most important and influential leaders in 20th-century Chinese history, and the text of nine primary documents provides direct access to their words, which shaped the Revolution. It also contains a timeline of significant events, a glossary of selected terms, and an annotated bibliography of suggested reading for students. The first essay puts the Chinese Revolution into the context of Chinese culture and practice, especially in the light of Confucian teaching, and examines national and international events that contributed to the Revolution. Five essays examine specific aspects of the Chinese Revolution: the thought of Mao Zedong; the political philosophy of Deng Xiaoping; the multiethnic character of China; China's relations with the USA and the Soviet Union; and China's interest in Hong Kong and Taiwan. A concluding essay assesses the consequences of the Revolution.
