The Nationalist Era in China, 1927-1949, Hardback Book

The Nationalist Era in China, 1927-1949 Hardback

Hardback

Description

In recent years historians of China have focused increased attention on the critical decades of National rule on the mainland.

This recent scholarship has substantially modified our understanding of the political events of this momentous period, shedding light on the character of Nationalist rule and on the sources of the Communist victory in 1949.

Yet no existing textbook on modern China presents the events of the period according to these new findings.

The five essays in this volume were written by leading authorities on the period, and they synthesize the new research.

Drawn from Volume 13 of The Cambridge History of China, they represent the most complete and stimulating political history of the period available in the literature.

The essays selected deal with Nationalist rule during the Nanking decade, the Communist movement from 1927 to 1937, Nationalist rule during the Sino-Japanese War, the Communist movement during the Sino-Japanese war, and the Kuomintang-Communist struggle from 1945 to 1949.
