Book excerpt: Manchuria, the name given to China's North-eastern provinces by foreign powers, has been contested by China, Russia and Japan in particular over many centuries. This book surveys the history of Manchuria, focusing particularly on the Russian and Soviet perspective. It outlines early colonisation of the region and examines the importance of the Chinese Eastern Railway, a branch of the Trans-Siberian Railway, and the remarkable railway city of Harbin for consolidating the Russian presence in the region and for developing the region's economy. It goes on to consider twentieth century developments, including the Japanese invasion and the puppet state of Manchukuo. Throughout, the book reflects on the nature of empire, especially Russian/Soviet imperialism and its similarities to and differences from other nations' imperial ventures.

Download or read book To the Harbin Station written by and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1999-05 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1898, near the projected intersection of the Chinese Eastern Railroad (the last leg of the Trans-Siberian) and China's Sungari River, Russian engineers founded the city of Harbin. Between the survey of the site and the profound dislocations of the 1917 revolution, Harbin grew into a bustling multiethnic urban center with over 100,000 inhabitants. In this area of great natural wealth, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and American ambitions competed and converged, and sometimes precipitated vicious hostilities. Drawing on the archives, both central and local, of seven countries, this history of Harbin presents multiple perspectives on Imperial Russia's only colony. The Russian authorities at Harbin and their superiors in St. Petersburg intentionally created an urban environment that was tolerant not only toward their Chinese host, but also toward different kinds of "Russians." For example, in no other city of the Russian Empire were Jews and Poles, who were numerous in Harbin, encouraged to participate in municipal government. The book reveals how this liberal Russian policy changed the face and fate of Harbin. As the history of Harbin unfolds, the narrative covers a wide range of historiographic concerns from several national histories. These include: the role of the Russian finance minister Witte, the building of the Trans-Siberian Railroad, the origins of Stolypin's reforms, the development of Siberia and the Russian Far East, the 1905 Revolution, the use of ethnicity as a tool of empire, civil-military conflict, strategic area studies, Chinese nationalism, the Japanese decision for war against the Russians, Korean nationalism in exile, and the rise of the soybean as an international commodity. In all these concerns, Harbin was a vibrant source of creative, unorthodox policy and turbulent economic and political claims.

Download or read book The Manchurian Tales written by Nick Hahn and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-01-25 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Manchurian Tales is a sprawling, multi-generational family saga that starts in mid 19th century and ends with the closing of the 20th century. It is a story of an uhl mao zeh (Russian Korean) family that begins when a 17 year old Korean boy swims across the Tuman River to the Russian side to seek adventure and start a new life. He meets and marries a beautiful daughter of a Manchu chief and the couple is baptized and become Russian as Luka Vasilievich and Maria Ivanovna. Thus begins the incredible journey of the family that was started by Luka and Maria. Luka becomes an important figure in the Asian community in the area known as Primorsky Krai, the region around Vladivostok. He launches a successful business empire which his two sons, Elisei and Vasili take over and move to Manchuria, making it even bigger. The family saga continues with the second generation through Russian Revolution and civil war, and the decline of the family business empire. The third generation's incredible adventures and tragedies are seen through the Second World War, the Korean War, and the aftermath. It ends with the fourth generation which disappears as uhl mao zeh, becoming absorbed into the culture and society where they are living. The Manchurian Tales is not written in a traditional novel form, rather it is a collection of independent stories, chronologically arranged to describe the family saga. Throughout, there are stories sprinkled within that are not about family members, tales that are about those who were only distantly or peripherally related to the family. However, all of them are important, for they describe Manchuria of that time period, and tell the story of the uhl mao zeh. This book is a fascinating account of the region, time period, and people that is very little known, even by those living in East Asia. It is no doubt one of the first if not the first time that the name uhl mao zeh appears in print.
