A concise account of how revolutions made modern China and helped shape the modern world China’s emergence as a twenty-first-century global economic, cultural, and political power is often presented as a story of what Chinese leader Xi Jinping calls the nation’s “great rejuvenation,” a story narrated as the return of China to its “rightful” place at the center of the world. In China’s Revolutions in the Modern World, historian Rebecca E. Karl argues that China’s contemporary emergence is best seen not as a “return,” but rather as the product of revolutionary and counter-revolutionary activity and imaginings. From the Taipings in the mid-nineteenth century through nationalist, anti-imperialist, cultural, and socialist revolutions to today’s capitalist-inflected Communist State, modern China has been made in intellectual dissonance and class struggle, in mass democratic movements and global war, in socialism and anti-socialism, in repression and conflict by multiple generations of Chinese people mobilized to seize history and make the future in their own name. Through China’s successive revolutions, the contours of our contemporary world have taken shape. This brief interpretive history shows how.

This is the "Simplified Chinese" version of An Interpretive History of the Valiant Chinese in America written by the author. It is a thoughtful interpretation, rather than a simple narration, of the Chinese both as a group of immigrants and as a minority from Asia seeking for a better tomorrow in the land of the United States. It reveals the hardships and the uncommon encountering of the early arrivals, and explains the processes and changes that they had endured for survival. Besides describing most of the harsh experiences and the hard earned respects along a lengthy path of struggles, the author also provides, or attempts to give, a comprehensive insight on events that unfairly happened to all the Chinese, and most conditions did not improve until they as a downgraded race have been lawfully recognized and cordially accepted as citizens with the basic sharing of rights like the others. Needless to say, this book recounts the different stages of the Chinese difficulties and struggles from the past to the present, before they could gradually ascend as a whole. However, in examining issues regarding discrimination and other injustice, it ventures to cover not only the historical facts of how-things-happened, but also explores the interrelated causes of why-things-happened. Another distinctive feature of this book was the focus of the main story line of the valiant group among the Chinese immigrants in the 20th century as well as among the Chinese-Americans, who initially started to explore ways to change the fate for themselves and for their motherland, i.e., China, especially the efforts they made since the Second World War and thereafter. A major differentiation of itself from a number of similar books on subject of the history of the Chinese in USA, interestingly, is that it reveals the often untold mystery of motivation and confrontation among the Chinese with regard to their views on Chinese politics being debated for support in cities of the United States, and that remained a strangely ongoing phenomena which appeared from day to day in many of Chinese communities; if grouped by status of identities, those involved in the rift were immigrants old and new, sometimes included foreign students from either Taiwan or Hong Kong, and joined by Chinese-Americans by birth or citizens of those who might have legally claimed US citizenship through their own merits. It was an unending fight with polemics among Chinese outside of China. Yet, for whatever intention, a general picture of the crawls showed that whoever took part in such an effort more or less would all entangle themselves with issues uncompromising between the KMT and the CCP of the Chinese politics, which played out aboard in their communal arena. Therefore, to elaborate and discuss that, topics related to events in the United States, in Taiwan, and in the mainland of China are reviewed. As for the bravery of the so-called "valiant", it is understandably meant to refer to those who had dared to fight against injustice, dared to pursue their ideal, and dared to take action. In short, it is also a metaphor to honor those who fit such a meaning in the long struggle of improving the status for all the Chinese in America, since this book is about all of them who came to USA in seeking dreams as a start, and for whose who stride along as descendants of the early forefathers; no matter immigrants or citizens they might be, they all need something called "courage". It is always the braves who took the leads and this book is dedicated to the innovative spirit of such few.
