Foreigners and Foreign Institutions in Republican China

摘要

This imaginative collection, which belies the book's rather conventional title, makes a notable contribution to scholarly writing on the foreign experience of China during the Republican era. The authors approach their individual topics from a diversity of perspectives - history, political science, anthropology, sociology, and literary and cultural studies - and are based in countries ranging from Italy and South Korea to New Zealand, Australia, the United States and Canada.
