{"product_id":"chinas-new-nationalism-peter-hays-gries-9780520244825","title":"China's New Nationalism: Pride, Politics, and Diplomacy","description":"Three American missiles hit the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, and what Americans view as an appalling and tragic mistake, many Chinese see as a \"barbaric\" and intentional \"criminal act,\" the latest in a long series of Western aggressions against China. In this book, Peter Hays Gries explores the roles of perception and sentiment in the growth of popular nationalism in China. At a time when the direction of China's foreign and domestic policies have profound ramifications worldwide, Gries offers a rare, in-depth look at the nature of China's new nationalism, particularly as it involves Sino-American and Sino-Japanese relations-two bilateral relations that carry extraordinary implications for peace and stability in the twenty-first century. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough recent Chinese books and magazines, movies, television shows, posters, and cartoons, Gries traces the emergence of this new nationalism. Anti-Western sentiment, once created and encouraged by China's ruling PRC, has been taken up independently by a new generation of Chinese. Deeply rooted in narratives about past \"humiliations\" at the hands of the West and impassioned notions of Chinese identity, popular nationalism is now undermining the Communist Party's monopoly on political discourse, threatening the regime's stability. As readable as it is closely researched and reasoned, this timely book analyzes the impact that popular nationalism will have on twenty-first century China and the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Hays Gries\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520244826\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520244825\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/05\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.04h x 6.22w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/14\/2008 pg. 30","brand":"Peter Hays Gries","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44128478200063,"sku":"9780520244825","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_676d024e-f171-405b-b3ca-146852e74103.jpg?v=1687458861","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chinas-new-nationalism-peter-hays-gries-9780520244825","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
