Subtitle The Taihang Base Area in the War of Resistance to Japan, 1937?1945. The Nile on eBay   Social and Political Change in Revolutionary China by David S.G. Goodman This is study and analysis of social and political change in the Taihang Base Area during the key years of the War of Resistance to Japan, which was instrumental to the establishment of the People's Republic of China. FORMATHardcover LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description This history provides the first book-length study and the first county-level analysis of social and political change in the Taihang Base Area during the key years of the War of Resistance to Japan, which was instrumental in the establishment of the People's Republic of China. David Goodman explores revolution as process, arguing that the Chinese Communist Party was successful because of its management of revolutionary incrementalism. In particular, he examines the roles and interactions of a variety of groups, highlighting the activities of urban intellectuals, teachers, and peasant small-holders as agents of change. Based on new sources of information—including materials from the Taihang Base Area recently republished by the CCP, documentation and reports from the Taiyuan Archive that have not been made publicly available, and interviews with veterans of the Taihang Base Area—this meticulously researched work deepens our understanding of the social and political origins of the Chinese revolution by considering how both the rural population and the CCP adapted and changed within that process. Author Biography David S. G. Goodman is director of the Institute for International Studies, University of Technology, Sydney. He is the co-editor of North China at War (Rowman & Littlefield). Table of Contents Chapter 1 Introduction: The Revolutionary Process Part 2 Part I: Political Order Chapter 3 Base Area and Border Region Chapter 4 Liaoxian: The Administrative Center Chapter 5 Wuxiang: Military Affairs and Mobilization Chapter 6 Licheng: Food and Factories Part 7 Part II: Social Reform Chapter 8 The Revolutionary Imperative Chapter 9 Liaoxian: Land and Social Reform Chapter 10 Wuxiang: Radical Politics and Revolutionary Conflict Chapter 11 Licheng: Resistance and Rebellion Chapter 12 Conclusion: Revolution in Southeast Shanxi Review Goodman's book is exceptionally well-supported by documentary sources and interviews. The introduction and the conclusions, which set out the relevant issues clearly and resolve them effectively, offer perhaps the best available summary of current research on wartime Chinese communism. The intervening chapters provide numerous thoughtful insights into the nature of social and political change in Taihang. Goodman displays a firm grasp of the issues and provides an authoritative guide to the debates about them. * China Quarterly *The book's wealth of detail, richness of sources and Goodman's skillful command of local social change in areas directly affected by complex warfare provide deep insights into a small corner of China's recent history. * Political Studies Review *Goodman's repeated visits to the region since 1987 have permitted interviews of veteran revolutionaries to supplement the documentary record. The result is a remarkably rich account of the revolutionary process in a key North China base. . . . The sources are rich, and the analysis persuasive. It continues the project of understanding how the revolution really worked at the local level, and, like much recent work, it helps us understand both how the Communists succeeded in establishing local power and how that process could create a regime that gradually became alienated from its social base. -- Joseph W. Esherick, University of California, San Diego * Journal of Asian Studies *A remarkably rich account of the revolutionary process in a key North China base. . . . The sources are rich, and the analysis persuasive. -- Joseph W. Esherick, University of California, San Diego * Journal of Asian Studies *Goodman's study furthers our appreciation for the wide regional variation that the course of the Chinese revolution took during the war against Japan. . . .
