About this product

Product Information

In the late nineteenth century, Korean refugees crossed the Tumen river border into Manchuria, triggering a territorial dispute between China, Korea, and Japan. This major new study of this multiethnic frontier highlights competing nation-building projects in the fraught period that witnessed the Sino-Japanese, the Russo-Japanese, and the First World Wars.

'How did a remote frontier in North East Asia become a source of friction and hostility between China, Korea, and Japan for the first half of the twentieth century? In this fascinating local history, Nianshen Song shows how China and Korea - two adjacent, centralized states with a centuries long history of frontier relations - re-negotiated the modern meanings of place and citizenship under the shadow of an imperialist Japan, eager to use the ambiguities of territorial meanings for its own purposes. Using a multi-lingual, multi-national archive, Song recounts the topsy-turvy changes marking China's conversion from a multi-ethnic empire to a nation-state in which Koreans become newly defined as national minorities. This is transnational history that captures both the excitement and tragedies of early twentieth-century East Asian history while offering a rigorous analysis of the shifting spatial conceptions of nation-states. In Song's adept hands, a small corner of Manchuria reveals itself as at the core of the intellectual, political, economic, and social struggles of East Asia's global modernity.' Andre Schmid, University of Toronto intellectual, political, economic, and social struggles of East Asia's global modernity.' Andre Schmid, University of Toronto intellectual, political, economic, and social struggles of East Asia's global modernity.' Andre Schmid, University of Toronto intellectual, political, economic, and social struggles of East Asia's global modernity.' Andre Schmid, University of Toronto, 'All in all, Song stresses that 'boundaries for both territories and people are relative rather than absolute, flexible rather than rigid'. His meticulous analysis richly elucidates this 'polyphonic' nature of boundary making.' Masato Hasegawa, Saksaha, 'The author deftly presents a convoluted tale of frontier settlement on the Sino-Korean border, where Chinese, Korean, Russian, and Japanese states and activists contended for influence. This skillful multilingual study told from multiple perspectives is a model for new imperial histories of Asia.' Peter C. Perdue, Yale University, Connecticut

Very fast shipping, there was just a little dent on the back of the card that wasn’t listed in the description and couldn’t see it from the pictures taken of the card. Other than that everything was good. Just wish there was more pictures of the card in the listing there were only 2 pictures of the card. And it was listed as mint condition it shouldn’t have been listed mint condition with the flaw on the back of the card.
