Rezensionen

China is in every global conversation today. Frans Paul van der Putten has written a clear, comprehensive and thoughtful account of the past two centuries as China has rise to international prominence, useful for students and policymakers alike. Rana Mitter, ST Lee Chair in US-Asia Relations, Harvard Kennedy School, USA

[Van der Putten] gives readers a clear, thought-provoking account of how a once-weak empire became a global power. The book informs and provokes, even as it leaves major questions open. For anyone looking for a broad, readable history of China's modern transformation, China Resurrected is a solid place to start. Indian Public Policy Review 20251006
