Revolution and Counterrevolution: the Politics of the Republic of China from the Social and Cultural Perspective (modern China)
by Wang Qisheng
About This Novel
In the decades after 1949, the writing of modern Chinese history by domestic historians was basically equivalent to the writing of the history of the Chinese revolution. This is largely due to the fact that revolution is indeed the main theme of modern Chinese history and an important code that dominates the development of the entire modern Chinese history. Today, when we have bid farewell to revolution, as historical researchers, we cannot simply give up, forget or deny those concepts that we have been obsessed with for a long time. We must ask, how were those revolutionary discourses and revolutionary political culture that have long been molded into our ideological values constructed? How did it evolve? This is where the thinking in this book begins.
