Paperback. Zustand: Good. This is a sourcebook of documents of democratic dissent under Chinese communism. The essays range from eye-witness accounts of a massacre to theoretical critiques of Chinese Marxist thought. The introduction maintains that the documents reveal a tradition of democratic thought and practice that traces its descent to the New Culture Movement of the 1910s and the founding generation of the Chinese Communist Party. Far from being a late 20th-century import (along with capitalist economics) from Europe, Japan and the United States, this tradition of dissent is deeply embedded in the experience of China's revolutionary movements. This book calls into question many of the usual beliefs about the relation between democracy and communism, at least in the Chinese case, which may now be seen to depart from the Soviet model in yet another crucial respect.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Hu Feng was a well-known literary critic in the early days of the Chinese Communist Party but his views about the importance of subjectivity were in opposition to those of Chairman Mao and led to his arrest in 1955. His wife shared some of his 25 years in prison, and presents an account of that time, the care she was able to offer him during his incarceration, and life under Mao's regime.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Qiaopi is one of several names given to the "silver letters" Chinese emigrants sent home in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Dear China contributes substantially to our understanding of modern Chinese history and to the comparative study of global migration.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Zheng Chaolin helped found the Chinese Communist Party's European branch in Paris in 1922 and its Trotskyist Opposition in Shanghai in 1931. He held the world record in political imprisonment - seven years under Chiang Kai-shek (as a revolutionary) and 27 under Mao (as a 'counterrevolutionary'), thus beating by a year Auguste Blanqui's previous record. After joining the revolution in his teens, his commitment never wavered. His life - which spanned from 1901 to 1998 - was coterminous with the century and a dramatic embodiment of its vicissitudes. The writing collected in this book reflects that, and provides an indispensable record of his contribution to revolutionary thought in China.…
