Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'What's Wrong With China' is a provocative and analytical examination of the social, political, and cultural landscape of China during the early 20th century. Written by Rodney Gilbert, a journalist with extensive experience in the region, the work offers a critical perspective on the internal struggles and societal structures that defined the nation during the chaotic Warlord Era. Gilbert explores the complex interplay between traditional Chinese values and the pressures of modernization, providing a candid critique of the country's governance, national character, and international standing at a pivotal historical moment.The narrative delves into the reasons behind the political instability and social fragmentation of the 1920s, questioning the efficacy of the republic and the influence of foreign powers. By examining the cultural psyche and the weight of history on contemporary events, Gilbert provides a window into the Western perceptions of the Far East during a period of profound global transition.
