Wages in ChinaAn Economic Analysis (3-Volume Set)ZHANG Jun (Fudan University)

Dissects China’s Wage Determination MechanismA major determinant of the primary distribution of national income, wages will have tremendous impacts on both social equity and economic efficiency in China.

Unequal Treaties and China(2-Volume Set)WANG Jianlang (Chinese Academy of Social Sciences)

Details China’s Struggles Against a History of Unequal TreatiesUnderstanding a country’s history is a vital way of understanding its people. In this book author Wang Jianlang looks at how history has affected the nation and how unequal treaties from foreign powers have shaped China’s policies even up until the modern day.

From the first Opium War (1839-1842) and until the birth of New China in 1949, China was forced to sign multiple unequal treaties by foreign imperialist and invading powers. In these treaties, China conceded many of its sovereign rights in terms of territory and commerce. Ever since the time of the first unequal treaty (the Treaty of Nanjing), the people of China have struggled to invalidate these unequal treaties. Unequal Treaties and China provides a comprehensive overview of China’s history of fighting against these unequal treaties.

•A comprehensive survey of China’s unequal treaties with foreign imperialist powers since the late-Qing Dynasty era

•A comparison of how different governments in China in different eras responded to the unequal treaties

WANG Jianlang is the President of the Institute of Modern History, CASS, the General Secretary of the Association of Chinese Historians, and the Dean of the Department of Modern History of the Graduate School, CASS.

The Ideological Transformation of 20th Century Chinese Literature(2-Volume Set)XIE Mian (Peking University)

Rulers in the late-Qing dynasty era were subjected to unwilling reforms which saw the abolition of the “eight-legged” essays and the imperial examination as these had notoriously restricted the thinking of the Chinese literati. Shortly after the fall of the Qing, leaders of the New Culture Movement started to promote vernacular literature, stressed the need for a re-examination of the ancient classics, and championed the popularization of Western values. After that, Chinese literature was taken on a completely different trajectory, not only in stylistic terms but also in ideological ones.

This book is the fruit of poet and critic Xie Mian’s decades-long study of contemporary Chinese literature during his earlier years as a professor at Peking University. Grouped thematically and in accordance with the periods in discussion, this collection of nearly 50 essays provides an integrated examination of the historical backdrop and ideologies that underpinned Chinese literature from the days of the New Culture Movement to the New Era beyond the Cultural Revolution through a mix of microscopic criticisms and macroscopic overviews.

The book won the Chinese Association of Contemporary Literature Outstanding Achievement Award.

XIE Mian, born in 1932, is renowned as a literary critic, poet, writer, and academic expert in contemporary Chinese literature. He holds various titles including Honorary Vice President of the Beijing Writers Association, Honorary Member of the China Writers Association National Committee, and Vice President of the Chinese Association of Contemporary Literature.
