The Oxford History of Modern China
Jeffrey N. Wasserstrom
The Oxford History of Modern China
is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand this rising
power in what promises to be the 'Chinese century'. Covering the period
of dramatic shifts and surprising transformations which comprise China's
modern history, the book spans from the founding of the Qing Dynasty
(1644-1912) to the present day. It introduces readers to important but
often overlooked events in China's past, such as the bloody Taiping
Civil War (1850-1864), and also sheds new light on more familiar
landmarks in Chinese history, such as the Opium War (1839-1842), the
Boxer Uprising of 1900, the rise to power of the Chinese Communist Party
in 1949, the Tiananmen protests and Beijing Massacre of 1989, and
China's rise to economic superpower status in the 21st century. A new
chapter for this edition brings the story into the era of Xi Jinping.
