Book Synopsis Sinology in Post-Communist States by : Shih Chihyu
Book excerpt: Selfknowledge is the foundation of sinology. Becoming a sinologist involves engaging in multisited processes that deconstruct stereotypical notions of China's rise in the 21st century. The sinologists in this edited volume have actively participated in studies shaped by their specific historical contexts, strategic choices and varied adaptations. Positioned in different sites, these agents respond in diverse ways to China's rise and identity.
