‎In Exile from the Land of Snows: The Dalai Lama and Tibet Since the Chinese Conquest.‎

‎London UK Harper Perennial 1994. Paperback First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: binding very slightly cocked but remains perfectly secure; text clean. Just a hint of wear to extremities; mildest rubbing; pages tanned a bit. Close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. 383pp. Trade Paperback. If you have had any Shangri-La type illusions about Tibet this book will soon blow them away. This book will make you laugh weep clench your fists and probably curse before you're done but it will not leave you unchanged either in your opinion of Tibet the Dalai Lama and especially of China. This is a very balanced account from the Tibetan perspective of the period roughly from the end of WWII until 1990. In addition to an unvarnished account of Tibetan bravery desire to retain their homeland at all costs and credulity and unlimited Chinese brutality and treachery there is a great deal of social insight woven in. This is not a "feel-good" story to garner sympathy for the Tibetans this is a tell-it-like-is book whose message is so daunting that I'm not sure most of the world much less the Tibetans themselves are ready to face much of it. This is not a book so much about religion although you cannot write about Tibet without writing about Buddhism as about world politics thundering down on a small isolated nation. It is about the bravery and resourcefulness of the Tibetan people and the greatness of their leader. And it is about the utter shameless cupidity and determination of the Chinese to lay hold of this strategic bit of real estate and anihilate its native population. This book should serve as a powerful reminder of what the PRC is capable of and just how much their talk is worth. The chances for any kind of an autonomous much less independent Tibetan region are slim to none but that the facade needs to be kept up for political and morale reasons. None the less it is a bitter truth that the Chinese have done the rest of the world a favor: by driving the Tibetans out of Tibet they have released a great force for peace and good to the rest of us in the form of Tibetan Buddhism His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

‎Yellow Peril! An Archive of Anti-Asian Fear‎

‎8vo, br. ed. Paperback, 15.5x23.5cm, 384pp.Synopsis: From invading hordes to enemy agents, a great fear haunts the West! The “yellow peril” is one of the oldest and most pervasive racist ideas in Western culture—dating back to the birth of European colonialism during the Enlightenment. Yet while Fu Manchu looks almost quaint today, the prejudices that gave him life persist in modern culture. Yellow Peril! is the first comprehensive repository of anti-Asian images and writing, and it surveys the extent of this iniquitous form of paranoia. Written by two dedicated scholars and replete with paintings, photographs, and images drawn from pulp novels, posters, comics, theatrical productions, movies, propagandistic and pseudo-scholarly literature, and a varied world of pop culture ephemera, this is both a unique and fascinating archive and a modern analysis of this crucial historical formation. About the Author: John Kuo-Wei Tchen is a professor at New York University, the author of New York Before Chinatown, and co-founder of the Museum of Chinese in America. Dylan Yeats is a doctoral candidate at New York University.‎

‎China's Hidden Children‎

‎8vo hardcoveIn the thirty-five years since China instituted its One-Child Policy, 120,000 children mostly girls have left China through international adoption, including 85,000 to the United States. It s generally assumed that this diaspora is the result of China s approach to population control, but there is also the underlying belief that the majority of adoptees are daughters because the One-Child Policy often collides with the traditional preference for a son. While there is some truth to this, it does not tell the full story a story with deep personal resonance to Kay Ann Johnson, a China scholar and mother to an adopted Chinese daughter. Johnson spent years talking with the Chinese parents driven to relinquish their daughters during the brutal birth-planning campaigns of the 1990s and early 2000s, and, with "China s Hidden Children, "she paints a startlingly different picture. The decision to give up a daughter, she shows, is not a facile one, but one almost always fraught with grief and dictated by fear. Were it not for the constant threat of punishment for breaching the country s stringent birth-planning policies, most Chinese parents would have raised their daughters despite the cultural preference for sons. With clear understanding and compassion for the families, Johnson describes their desperate efforts to conceal the birth of second or third daughters from the authorities. As the Chinese government cracked down on those caught concealing an out-of-plan child, strategies for surrendering children changed from arranging adoptions or sending them to live with rural family to secret placement at carefully chosen doorsteps and, finally, abandonment in public places. In the twenty-first century, China s so-called abandoned children have increasingly become stolen children, as declining fertility rates have left the dwindling number of children available for adoption more vulnerable to child trafficking. In addition, government seizures of locally but illegally adopted children and children hidden within their birth families mean that even legal adopters have unknowingly adopted children taken from parents and sent to orphanages. The image of the unwanted daughter remains commonplace in Western conceptions of China. With "China s Hidden Children, " Johnson reveals the complex web of love, secrecy, and pain woven in the coerced decision to give one s child up for adoption and the profound negative impact China s birth-planning campaigns have on Chinese families.". r, as new.‎

‎Johnston, Alastair Iain‎

‎Cultural Realism: Strategic Culture and Grand Strategy in Ming China: Strategic Culture and Grand Strategy in Chinese History‎

‎8vo, br. ed. 368pp. Cultural Realism is an in-depth study of premodern Chinese strategic thought that has important implications for contemporary international relations theory. In applying a Western theoretical debate to China, Iain Johnston advances rigorous procedures for testing for the existence and influence of "strategic culture." Johnston sets out to answer two empirical questions. Is there a substantively consistent and temporally persistent Chinese strategic culture? If so, to what extent has it influenced China's approaches to security? The focus of his study is the Ming dynasty's grand strategy against the Mongols (1368-1644). First Johnston examines ancient military texts as sources of Chinese strategic culture, using cognitive mapping, symbolic analysis and congruence tests to determine whether there is a consistent grand strategic preference ranking across texts that constitutes a single strategic culture. Then he applies similar techniques to determine the effect of the strategic culture on the strategic preferences of the Ming decision makers. Finally, he assesses the effect of these preferences on Ming policies towards the Mongol "threat." The findings of this book challenge dominant interpretations of traditional Chinese strategic thought. They suggest also that the roots of realpolitik are ideational and not predominantly structural. The results lead to the surprising conclusion that there may be, in fact, fewer cross-national differences in strategic culture than proponents of the "strategic culture" approach think.‎
