Download or read book Bibliography of the Chinese Question in the United States Classic Reprint written by Robert Ernest Cowan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bibliography of the Chinese Question in the United States The accompanying work includes in books, pamphlets, and similar publications, the literature of Chinese immigration and its various phases. Articles in the newspaper and periodical press have not been included, such references being sufficiently numerous to form a separate monograph of considerable volume. With few exceptions the many documents published by the United States government have also been omitted. The list prepared in the Library of Congress under the direction of Mr. Griffin is apparently so complete that further work in that direction is rendered unnecessary. Endeavor has been made to include all references possible, and while without doubt some have been overlooked, it is hoped that such omissions have been few and unimportant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of China A european lately arrived in China, if he is of a receptive and reflective disposition, finds himself confronted with a number Of very puzzling questions, for many of which the problems of Western Europe will not have prepared him. Russian problems, it is true, have important affinities with those of China, but they have also important differences moreover they are decidedly less complex. Chinese problems, even if they affected no one outside China, would be of vast importance, since the Chinese are estimated to constitute about a quarter of the human race. In fact, however, all the world will be vitally affected by the development of Chinese afiairs, which may well prove a decisive factor, for good or evil, during the next two centuries. This makes it impor tant, to Europe and America almost as much 'as to Asia, that there should be an intelligent understand ing of the questions raised by China, even if, as yet, definite answers are difficult to give.

Download or read book Chinese Immigration Classic Reprint written by S. Wells Williams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chinese Immigration Tue question of Chinese immigration has drawn to it a degree of attention since the immigrants began to land in this country thirty years ago, which can hardly be explained by their numbers, their conduct, or their capacity. The total arrivals from China during a quar ter'oi a century have not equaled the number of per sons which have landed at New York from Europe in six months during most of those same years. Their behavior, under great provocation. Has excited no com motion nor has their learning. Power, skill. Or bigotry been such as to give any reasonable ground for alarm. It is not easy to account for the excitement on rational grounds, or to explain the many unfounded statements against the Chinese which have passed current, even after their inaccuracy has been shown. A good deal of the discussion has arisen from the different views taken as to what might grow out of their presence or increase. Some, drawing on their fears for their facts, regard them as the first ripple of an overwhelming flood of ignorance, poverty, heathenism, and vice; while others. Speaking from experience. After trying them in various capacities, assure us that the Chinese are docile, temperate. Thrifty. And industrious. And have great ca pacity for improvement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Real Chinese Question That is a charitable rule of life which bids us take every man at his best. It is, however, wiser and safer to study each individual as thoroughly as circumstances will permit, and then to strike a balance between good and evil traits of character, accepting the result as a basis for judgment and action, so far as he is concerned.

If, in such use, it serves no other purpose, it will, at least, act as a corrective to ignorant prejudice, and to that most common fault, prejudgment. There is much force, and a wide range of applicability, to that French saying: "Les absens ont toujours tort" the absent are always in the wrong. Their story is seldom fairly told, the motives and causes which led to any particular conduct are seldom brought into a plain light, and judgment goes against them by misrepresentation or default. This rule of common practice is, also, not less applicable to nations and races than to individual members of the human family.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the success of The China Questions, a new volume of insights from top China specialists explains key issues shaping today’s US-China relationship. For decades Americans have described China as a rising power. That description no longer fits: China has already risen. What does this mean for the US-China relationship? For the global economy and international security? Seeking to clarify central issues, provide historical perspective, and demystify stereotypes, Maria Adele Carrai, Jennifer Rudolph, and Michael Szonyi and an exceptional group of China experts offer essential insights into the many dimensions of the world’s most important bilateral relationship. Ranging across questions of security, economics, military development, climate change, public health, science and technology, education, and the worrying flashpoints of Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Xinjiang, these concise essays provide an authoritative look at key sites of friction and potential collaboration, with an eye on where the US-China relationship may go in the future. Readers hear from leading thinkers such as James Millward on Xinjiang, Elizabeth Economy on diplomacy, Shelley Rigger on Taiwan, and Winnie Yip and William Hsiao on public health. The voices included in The China Questions 2 recognize that the US-China relationship has changed, and that the policy of engagement needs to change too. But they argue that zero-sum thinking is not the answer. Much that is good for one society is good for both—we are facing not another Cold War but rather a complex and contextually rooted mixture of conflict, competition, and cooperation that needs to be understood on its own terms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from China Revolutionized All these questions presented themselves when the re formers startled the world with the announcement that there was to be a republic in China. Lit was to be a republic - not a monarchy said even those Chinese who had been educated in Japan, where lately a Japanese editor educated in America and ten pthers had been tried and executed in secret, the papers sealed, and the press censored. They wanted pitiless publicity in the new republican China. Had there been no abatement of the Opium habit through Amer ica's leadership Of sentiment, and Britain's sacrifice of rev enue from 1909 to 1911, there could have been no rebellion in 1911. The reform cleared the befogged heads of the nation, added a million men to agitation, and furnished a hundred million dollars directly and indirectly toward the independence Of the agitators. How great a stone America and Britain set rolling in that Opium Conference of 1909 at Shanghai! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
