{"product_id":"the-boxers-china-and-the-robert-bickers-9780742553941","title":"The Boxers, China, and the World","description":"In 1900, China chose to take on imperialism by fighting a war with the world on the parched north China plain. This multi-disciplinary volume explores the causes behind what is now known as the Boxer war, examining its particular cruelties and its impact on China, foreign imperialism in China, and on the foreign imagination. The Boxers have often been represented as a force from China's past, resisting an enforced modernity. Here, expert contributors argue that this rebellion was instead a wholly modern resistance to globalizing power, representing new trends in modern China and in international relations. This volume will appeal to readers interested in modern Chinese, East Asian, and European history as well as the history of imperialism, colonialism, warfare, missionary work, and Christianity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Bickers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0742553949\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780742553941\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/12\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.12h x 6.35w x 0.97d","brand":"Robert Bickers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46383865463039,"sku":"9780742553941","price":132.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4633d65a-f5ca-493b-aa92-4944238ed01f.jpg?v=1733281906","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-boxers-china-and-the-robert-bickers-9780742553941","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
