History of Modernizing China

China is not just a country, it is the heir of a culture dating back thousands of years. Today, it has an undeniable impact on the world economy, politics and history. In The History of Modernizing China, Michael Dillon offers a comprehensive narrative of China with its material and cultural accumulation. While it conveys the changes and transformations China has undergone in a chronological order from the 19th century to the present, it also discusses cultural history and the ideas that accelerate change or support resistance to change. Since a modern Chinese history that is not depicted with dynasties, imperial periods, wars, rebellions, ethno-religious conflicts and socialism cannot be accepted, he pays special attention to all these historical sections.

"This study is the historical narrative of China in the modern period. Although the 20th century, which is divided into two based on 1949, when the CCP came to power, carries more weight, at some points the 19th century is examined in detail and more recent developments also reflect China's long history. "It is discussed in the context of imperial history."
