HIST 335 - Modern China

China’s transformation between the Opium War (1839-1842) and the 1990’s may be seen as a progressive adjustment to the modern world or as an ever-intensifying revolution in Chinese government, society, and culture. This course combines the two approaches, exploring the problem of modernizing and revolutionary China through the eyes of participants and the debates of historians.
