| Summary |
"The Modern Chinese State is the first book to examine systematically the evolution of the Chinese state from the late Ming dynasty, through the Nationalist and Communist party-states of the twentieth century, and into the twenty-first century. The contributing authors, all leading scholars in the field of Chinese studies, carefully assess the internal organization of the Chinese state over time, the ruling parties that have governed it, the foreign and indigenous systems that have served as models for state-building and political development, and the array of concepts that have guided Chinese thinking about the state."--BOOK JACKET |
