Reviews

At a time when China's global presence is undoubted, this book reminds us of the imperative urgency for interrogating the notion of Chineseness. What makes this volume important is that it compels us to go beyond discussions on what Chineseness is, towards examination of how it's done and what it does to whom under which sociopolitical conditions. * Miguel Perez-Milans, University College London, UK *
