Access to History – China: From Empire to People’s Republic 1900-49 ISBN 9781444110128

In 1900 China was politically undeveloped and economically exploited by Western colonial powers. Over the next 50 turbulent years it had rejected its imperial past, welcomed republicanism, survived Japanese occupation, witnessed civil war and embraced a Marxist revolution. These extraordinary developments are examined in this book, which combines a factual narrative with up-to-date analysis of the events. Throughout the book, key dates, terms and issues are highlighted, and historical interpretations of key debates are outlined. Summary diagrams are included to consolidate knowledge and understanding of the period, and exam-style questions and tips written by examiners provide the opportunity to develop exam skills.
