The recurrent themes of the period are examined: the efforts of the Chinese leadership to build a new China out of the ruins of the old, their efforts to claim a place of equality among the nations of the world, and the development of the conflict between a resurgent China and the ambitions of Japan. Some of the issues studied were in the process of change and others definitely closed by war -- nearly all were affected to some degree.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45237478228119,"sku":"9781138658936","price":14111.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138658936.webp?v=1769216677","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/affairs-of-china-a-survey-of-the-recent-history-and-present-circumstances-of-the-republic-of-china-9781138658936","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
