From the late nineteenth to the early twentieth century, sojourners from other provinces dominated the population of Shanghai and other expanding commercial Chinese cities. These immigrants formed native place associations beginning in the imperial period and persisting into the mid-twentieth century. Goodman examines the modernization of these associations and argues that under weak urban government, native place sentiment and organization flourished and had a profound effect on city life, social order and urban and national identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bryna Goodman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520089170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520089174\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 10\/20\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 367\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.31h x 6.41w x 1.39d","brand":"Bryna Goodman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44119756112127,"sku":"9780520089174","price":63.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_71efe6a0-3854-4ae4-833e-25807f26ebc4.jpg?v=1687410793","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/native-place-city-and-nation-bryna-goodman-9780520089174","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
