This book explores new directions in the study of China’s borderlands. In addition to assessing the influential perspectives of other historians, it engages innovative approaches in the author’s own research. These studies probe regional accommodations, the intersections of borderland management, martial fortification, and imperial culture, as well as the role of governmental discourse in defining and preserving restive boundary regions. As the issue of China’s management of its borderlands grows more pressing, the work presents key information and insights into how that nation’s contested fringes have been governed in the past.

《藏学是什么》主要内容：自从13世纪中叶，西藏萨迦王朝顺应历史发展的潮流，反映人民群众的意愿，毅然决定接受元朝中央政府的管辖以来，西藏始终是中国的一个行政区域，西藏地方与历代中央王朝一直保持着地方与中央政府的政治关系。尽管近代曾出现过一些不愉快的插曲，帝国主义分子离间西藏与祖国的关系，别有用心地臆造出“西藏独立”的谎言，但统一始终是西藏与祖国关系的主旋律。

《西康图经》大致包括《地文篇》《境域篇》《民俗篇》三部分，就民国时期关于“西康”的地域、历史、人文做了较为全面的探讨。

纪录片《下南洋》分集内容简介：
第一集《华南之洋》 本集导演/撰稿：周兵、曾欣
对于中国的绝大部分观众，南洋只是一个十分模糊的地理概念，本集将向观众介绍何以本片将南洋的范围界定在新加坡、马来西亚、印度尼西亚、菲律宾四国，并展示今天的南洋有着什么样的面孔、南洋的生活是怎样的景象、有着怎样独特的文化景观。这是一个多彩的南洋舞台，序幕刚刚拉开，接下来在这个舞台上，历史与当下都将陆续登场。
第二集《南下之帆》 本集导演/撰稿：张华
中国人从什么时候开始涉足南洋岛国？以当时的航海技术，人们是驾着怎样的船只经过怎样的航线，来到南洋？是什么推动着一代又一代中国人离乡背井、远涉重洋？帝国的思维传统与统治基调，与历时近千年的下南洋是否有着内在的联系？而一旦出洋，对于船舱中那一个个脆弱的生命来说，又意味着一趟多么凶险与艰难的旅途……
第三集《异乡家园》 本集导演/撰稿：张效
这是华人初到南洋之后，建立的新生活：他们如何适应新的环境？他们在什么行业工作？他们与当地原住民的关系怎样？在这个过程中，华人又展现了哪些来自其文化背景的品格特质？在一片几乎未被开发的处女之地，中国人是如何建立起异乡的家园？
第四集《血泪南洋》 本集导演/撰稿：张效蔡、美慧
当殖民时代开始，西方以国家行为组织化地进入南洋，他们不可避免地与已经在当地生存下来的华人产生协作及冲突。在南洋的不同地区，在不同殖民者的统治下，华人的命运亦呈现出巨大的差异，最极端的，是有规律的周期性屠杀。血流成河的背后，更深层的原因是什么？经历了血泪苦难之后，南洋社会是否已走向更健康理性的社会架构？
第五集《百年兰芳》 本集导演/撰稿：丁英锋
在南洋的历史上，曾经出现一个存在长达百年，叫作"兰芳"的政治体。它其实只是南洋先后出现过的众多华人政治体之一。但是因为曾经有学者把它称为"兰芳共和国"、"兰芳公司"，而让它负载了更多意义。扑朔迷离的"兰芳"到底是怎样的组织？它与隔海相望的母国民间社会组织形态有着怎样的血缘关系？它是否真的负载了中国人的"现代国家"之梦？
第六集《千年家族》 本集导演/撰稿：丁英锋
在中华的传统中，家族的繁衍时间远远长寿于王朝的更迭周期。是什么赋予"家族"这一社会构成的基本单位如此顽强的生命力？这种生命力又是如何在南洋的舞台上扎根蓬勃？而这份蓬勃的背后，付出的又是什么？血缘——这既是中华最大的宗教，也是中华走向现代社会不得不面对的最根本问题。
第七集《母国春秋》 本集导演/撰稿：董力
在早年下南洋的华人心里，故乡只是以留在家乡的亲人为中心，以村镇为半径的一个很小的地理范围，在这之上，不是故国，而是朝廷。千年来，在天朝观的笼罩下，朝廷是如何对待出洋的子民？南洋华人又是从何时开始有了现代意义上的国家观念，由此自认为中国人？本集将站在母国的视角，描述南洋华人身份的变迁，由此，也映射出母国的变迁。
第八集《北望之心》 本集导演/撰稿：董力
可以毫不夸张地说，中国百年来的动乱与曲折，南洋华人是最切身的旁观者或亲历者，他们由早年间悲剧的主体变成了想要改变国家整体悲剧命运的人。随着国民观念的建立，他们面对母国，曾以怎样的热忱和决绝参与着国家的变革，但他们北望母国的赤子之心却总要面临冰或火的考验……
第九集《开放之门》 本集导演/撰稿：吉凤颂
长久以来，南洋都是中国这片大陆与外界连接的一个重要门户。现代的思潮、物资的流通、人才的进出……或多或少都通过这扇门。变革的潮流既有澎湃一时的波澜，亦有润物无声的涓涓细流，南洋之门到底曾经试图带给中国什么？如今留下的又是什么？自此，我们的视线开始由历史转向未来。
第十集《期待南洋》 本集导演/撰稿：周兵、曾欣
对南洋华人的纪录与书写，揭开的只是南洋舞台的纷繁一角。
全球自由迁徙和自由生存是全人类获得的现代财富，随着全球化进程在全世界的深入，有着共同历史源流的文化同胞，生活在不同的社会制度之下，与不同肤色、不同语言、不同习俗的邻居分享社会资源，将是整个人类的未来景象。面对多民族社会和谐共荣的美好愿望，南洋既是悠远的发端，也是现代的启示。

This book offers a sociological analysis as well as a theological discussion of China's internal migration since the marketization reform in 1978. It documents the social and political processes that encompass the experiences of internal migrants from the countryside to the city during China's integration into the global economy. Informed by sociological analysis and narratives of the urban poor, this volume reconstructs the political, economic, social and spiritual dimensions of this urban underclass in China who made up the economic backbone of the Asian superpower.

Based on a wealth of archival material released after Mao's death, this book offers a revisionist account of the introduction and triumph of Marxism in China. Dirlik shows that, in 1919, at the outset of the May Fourth Movement, anarchism was the predominant ideology among revolutionaries and intellectuals and Marxism was virtually unknown. Three years later, however, the Communist Party of China had emerged as the unchallenged leader of the Left. Dirlik disputes long-held beliefs about the domestic origins of Chinese Communism to argue that Communist thought and organization were brought into radical circles by the Comintern. Though Chinese radicals would not have turned to Communism unassisted, he concludes, Marxist ideology took hold easily when introduced from the outside. This book will prove indispensable to scholars of Chinese history and politics, Asian studies, Marxism, and comparative communism.

This first book-length study in Chinese or any Western language of personal letters and letter-writing in premodern China focuses on the earliest period (ca. 3rd-6th cent. CE) with a sizeable body of surviving correspondence. Along with the translation and analysis of many representative letters, Antje Richter explores the material culture of letter writing (writing supports and utensils, envelopes and seals, the transportation of finished letters) and letter-writing conventions (vocabulary, textual patterns, topicality, creativity). She considers the status of letters as a literary genre, ideal qualities of letters, and guides to letter-writing, providing a wealth of examples to illustrate each component of the standard personal letter. References to letter-writing in other cultures enliven the narrative throughout.
Letters and Epistolary Culture in Early Medieval China makes the social practice and the existing textual specimens of personal Chinese letter-writing fully visible for the first time, both for the various branches of Chinese studies and for epistolary research in other ancient and modern cultures, and encourages a more confident and consistent use of letters as historical and literary sources.

For many years now China's economy has seemed unstoppable. A slow appreciation of the renminbi in 2007 brought wave upon wave of liquidity into China and allowed its companies and banks to raise hundreds of billions in dollars via stock market listings. State banks that had started the new century as bankrupt relics of a communist past became the darlings of international investors.
Even the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008 and the ensuing global financial crisis seemed to have little impact on China as the government quickly responded with a huge stimulus package. But the Lehman collapse was a dramatic wake up call to the Chinese leadership. This model of bank and capital market reform had been studiously emulated for more than a decade and had brought great benefits to China. But now, although they believed it to be bankrupt, the Chinese government were bereft of new ideas. In the face of the global financial crisis the government returned to what it knows best, massive state intervention via the banking system. Ten years of banking and capital market reforms were dead.
In Red Capitalism, Carl Walter and Fraser Howie detail how the Chinese government reformed and modeled its financial system in the 30 years since it began its policy of engagement with the west. Instead of a stable series of policies producing steady growth, China's financial sector has boomed and gone bust with regularity in each decade. The latest decade is little different. Chinese banks have become objects of political struggle while they totter under balance sheets bloated by the excessive state-directed lending and bond issuance of 2009.
Looking forward, the government's response to the global financial crisis has created a banking system the stability of which can be maintained only behind the walls of a non-convertible currency, a myriad of off-balance sheet arrangements with non-public state entities and the strong support of its best borrowers--the politically potent National Champions--who are the greatest beneficiaries of the financial status quo.
China's financial system is not a model for the west and, indeed, is not a sustainable arrangement for China itself as it seeks increasingly to assert its influence internationally. This is not a story of impending collapse, but of frustrated reforms that suggests that any full opening and meaningful reform of the financial sector is not, indeed cannot be, on the government's agenda anytime soon.

In this path-breaking book, Tong Lam examines the emergence of the “culture of fact” in modern China, showing how elites and intellectuals sought to transform the dynastic empire into a nation-state, thereby ensuring its survival. Lam argues that an epistemological break away from traditional modes of understanding the observable world began around the turn of the twentieth century. Tracing the Neo-Confucian school of evidentiary research and the modern departure from it, Lam shows how, through the rise of the social survey, “the fact” became a basic conceptual medium and source of truth. In focusing on China’s social survey movement, A Passion for Facts analyzes how information generated by a range of research practices—census, sociological investigation, and ethnography—was mobilized by competing political factions to imagine, manage, and remake the nation.

China’s dismantling of the Mao-era rural commune system and return to individual household farming under Deng Xiaoping has been seen as a successful turn away from a misguided social experiment and a rejection of the disastrous policies that produced widespread famine. In this revisionist study, Joshua Eisenman marshals previously inaccessible data to overturn this narrative, showing that the commune modernized agriculture, increased productivity, and spurred an agricultural green revolution that laid the foundation for China’s future rapid growth.
Red China’s Green Revolution tells the story of the commune’s origins, evolution, and downfall, demonstrating its role in China’s economic ascendance. After 1970, the commune emerged as a hybrid institution, including both collective and private elements, with a high degree of local control over economic decision but almost no say over political ones. It had an integrated agricultural research and extension system that promoted agricultural modernization and collectively owned local enterprises and small factories that spread rural industrialization. The commune transmitted Mao’s collectivist ideology and enforced collective isolation so it could overwork and underpay its households. Eisenman argues that the commune was eliminated not because it was unproductive, but because it was politically undesirable: it was the post-Mao leadership led by Deng Xiaoping—not rural residents—who chose to abandon the commune in order to consolidate their control over China. Based on detailed and systematic national, provincial, and county-level data, as well as interviews with agricultural experts and former commune members, Red China’s Green Revolution is a comprehensive historical and social scientific analysis that fundamentally challenges our understanding of recent Chinese economic history.

Prior to the nineteenth century, the West occupied an anomalous space in the Chinese imagination, populated by untamable barbarians and unearthly immortals. First-hand accounts and correspondence from Qing envoys and diplomats to Europe unraveled that perception. In this path-breaking study, Jenny Huangfu Day interweaves the history of Qing legation-building with the personal stories of China's first official travelers, envoys and diplomats to Europe. She explores how diplomat-travelers navigated the conceptual and physical space of a land virtually unmapped in the Chinese intellectual tradition and created a new information order. This study reveals the fluidity, heterogeneity, and ambivalence of their experience, and the layers of tension between thinking, writing, and publishing about the West. By integrating diplomatic and intellectual history with literary analysis and communication studies, Day offers a fundamentally new interpretation of the Qing's engagement with the West.

Christianity has become the most practiced religion among the Chinese in America. However, but very little solid research exists on Chinese Christians and their churches. This book is the first to explore the subject from the inside, revealing how Chinese construct and reconstruct their identity—as Christians, Americans, and Chinese—in local congregations amid the radical pluralism of the late twentieth century.
Today there are more than one thousand Chinese churches in the United States, most of them Protestant evangelical congregations, bringing together diasporic Chinese from diverse origins—Taiwan, Hong Kong, mainland China, and Southeast Asian countries. Fenggang Yang finds that despite the many tensions and conflicts that exist within these congregations, most individuals find ways to integrate creatively their evangelical Christian beliefs with traditional Chinese (most Confucian) values. The church becomes a place where they can selectively assimilate into American society while simultaneously preserving Chinese values and culture.
Yang brings to this study unique experience as both participant and observer. Born in mainland China, he is a sociologist who converted to Christianity after coming to the United States. The heart of this book is an ethnographic study of a representative Chinese church, located in Washington, D.C., where he became a member. Throughout the book, Yang draws upon interviews with members of this congregation while making comparisons with other churches throughout the United States. Chinese Christians in America is an important addition to the literature on the experience of "new" immigrant communities.

This comprehensive history of the northern frontier of China through the first millennium B.C. details the formation of two increasingly distinct cultural areas: the sedentary Chinese and the northern nomads. Nicola Di Cosmo explores the tensions existing between these two worlds as they became progressively more polarized, with the eventual creation of the nomadic Hsiung-nu empire in the north, and of the Chinese empire in the south. Di Cosmo investigates the origins of the antagonism between early China and its "barbarian" neighbors.
