Chinese Revolutions

3 Credits.

This survey course situates China's political and cultural revolutions within broader transnational contexts from the nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. It examines foreign influences and global entanglements through topics such as Christian missionaries and anti-dynastic revolutions, the contest between the New Culture Movement and the Confucian Revering Movement, Chinese overseas and federalist movements, and the international dimensions of Chinese nationalist projects between 1898 and 1949.
