BROPHY DAVID
Uyghur Nation: Reform And Revolution On The Russia-china Frontier
Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2016. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. The meeting of the Russian and Qing empires in the nineteenth century had dramatic consequences for Central Asia's Muslim communities. Along this frontier a new political space emerged shaped by competing imperial and spiritual loyalties cross-border economic and social ties and the revolutions that engulfed Russia and China in the early twentieth century. David Brophy explores how a community of Central Asian Muslims responded to these historic changes by reinventing themselves as the modern Uyghur nation. As exiles and migrs traders and seasonal laborers a diverse diaspora of Muslims from China's northwest province of Xinjiang spread to Russian territory where they became enmeshed in political and intellectual currents among Russia's Muslims. From the many national and transnational discourses of identity that circulated in this mixed community the rhetoric of Uyghur nationhood emerged as a rallying point in the tumult of the Bolshevik Revolution and Russian Civil War. Working both with and against Soviet policy a shifting alliance of constituencies invoked the idea of a Uyghur nation to secure a place for itself in Soviet Central Asia and to spread the revolution to Xinjiang. Although its existence was contested in the fractious politics of the 1920s in the 1930s the Uyghur nation achieved official recognition in the Soviet Union and China. Grounded in a wealth of little-known archives from across Eurasia Uyghur Nation offers a bottom-up perspective on nation-building in the Soviet Union and China and provides crucial background to the ongoing contest for the history and identity of Xinjiang. 368 pages 6-1/8 x 9-1/4 inches 15 halftones 3 maps. David Brophy is a Lecturer in Modern Chinese History at the University of Sydney. "Drawing on sources in several languages this book demonstrates how the idea of a Uyghur nation emerged in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Brophy shows how intellectuals in Taranchi and Kashgari communities along the Xinjiang-Russian border inspired by academic writings on ancient Uyghurs negotiated a new concept of Uyghur identity. This study is a valuable contribution to our understanding of the Uyghur national idea and to Central Asian and Xinjiang studies."�Ablet Kamalov Institute of Oriental Studies Almaty Kazakhstan "In Uyghur Nation Brophy transforms our understanding of the history of the Uyghurs. At the center of Brophy's attention is the question of how the Muslims of Chinese Turkistan came to imagine themselves as Uyghur. He traces the emergence of Uyghurist discourse by placing Uyghur history firmly where it belongs�in the very center of Eurasia at the crossroads of three empires. Brophy relates the emergence of Uyghurist discourse to developments in Muslim societies of Xinjiang and beyond as they came to terms with pressures and influences from the Qing the Russian and the Ottoman empires. Prodigiously researched across many archives and in multiple languages Uyghur Nation is a major work of transnational history that deserves a wide readership."�Adeeb Khalid Carleton College "Uyghur Nation breaks new ground in the study of modern Xinjiang. David Brophy takes a transnational approach to the formation of a 'Chinese' ethnic group offering a convincing account of the impact of tsarist and particularly Soviet institutions evolutions and interventions on the Qing and then Republican Chinese frontiers. He also demonstrates that the idea of a Uyghur nation had a conflicted cross-border twentieth-century history. Perhaps most important he unites political intellectual social religious even economic history to create a story rooted in local conditions not simple national or ethnic categories. He has written a strikingly original and impressive book."�Jonathan Lipman Mount Holyoke College "Nothing I have read in the last fifteen years comes close to this work in terms of intellectual breadth rigorous analysis and contribution to the field. This book will not only revolutionize thinking about the history of the Uyghur nation and the political history of Xinjiang during this period it will set a new bar for future scholarship and inspire readers to think again about the processes challenges and opportunities within shifting political landscapes that lead to the creation of nations."�Laura Newby University of Oxford Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2016 hardcover

BROWN JEREMY & JOHNSON MATTHEW D. EDITORS
Maoism At The Grassroots: Everyday Life In China's Era Of High Socialism
Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2015. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. The Maoist state's dominance over Chinese society achieved through such watersheds as the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution is well known. Maoism at the Grassroots reexamines this period of transformation and upheaval from a new perspective one that challenges the standard state-centered view. Bringing together scholars from China Europe North America and Taiwan this volume marshals new research to reveal a stunning diversity of individual viewpoints and local experiences during China's years of high socialism. Focusing on the period from the mid-1950s to 1980 the authors provide insights into the everyday lives of citizens across social strata ethnicities and regions. They explore how ordinary men and women risked persecution and imprisonment in order to assert personal beliefs and identities. Many displayed a shrewd knack for negotiating the maze-like power structures of everyday Maoism appropriating regime ideology in their daily lives while finding ways to express discontent and challenge the state's pervasive control. Heterogeneity limited pluralism and tensions between official and popular culture were persistent features of Maoism at the grassroots. Men had gay relationships in factory dormitories teenagers penned searing complaints in diaries mentally ill individuals cursed Mao farmers formed secret societies and worshipped forbidden spirits. These diverse undercurrents were as representative of ordinary people's lives as the ideals promulgated in state propaganda. Jeremy Brown is Associate Professor of History at Simon Fraser University. Matthew D. Johnson is Assistant Professor of History and Chair of East Asian Studies at Grinnell College. "As a work of cultural history Maoism at the Grassroots seeks to complicate interpretations of China's Mao era 1949-1976 through an examination of diverse and shared experiences of everyday life� As in the best edited volumes each section of this book is nicely linked to the others and the authors make connections across the chapters rather than writing in isolation� This book is a must-read for scholars who work on the People's Republic of China and will prove rewarding as well to anyone curious about ordinary life under Communist Party rule. Maoism at the Grassroots also makes an important intervention in the larger project of writing modern Chinese history. Until recently Western books on China were primarily written by white men and the occasional white woman. This volume features scholarship from an impressive array of both Western and Chinese academics many of the latter being translated into English for the first time. This marks a turning point in the production of historical scholarship on the Mao era and hopefully is an indication of growing collaboration among scholars in different parts of the West and in China."�Sarah Mellors The Los Angeles Review of Books "A new generation of Chinese and Western scholars is enriching the history of Mao Zedong's China with material from discarded personnel files diaries and unpublished manuscripts purchased from paper recyclers as well as from recently opened local archives. Their view from below challenges the clichd images of regimented masses fanatically loyal to the revolution."�Andrew J. Nathan Foreign Affairs "For years Maoist China was opaque from the outside�interpretable only by what a trickle of refugees said or by inference from government references to 'the masses.' That bland term is now pass but the Western tendency to homogenize the common folk of China persists especially in fields related to international relations where scholars and journalists casually refer to 'the Chinese' as if government rhetoric described everyone. Maoism at the Grassroots is a magnificent antidote to this bad habit."�Perry Link author of An Anatomy of Chinese: Rhythm Metaphor Politics "Maoism at the Grassroots showcases the exciting new scholarship being produced by the rising generation of historians of the People's Republic of China. These chapters portray Mao-era society and politics with startling intimacy and humanity drawing on a range of new sources that bring everyday experiences at the grassroots into sharp focus."�Andrew G. Walder author of China Under Mao: A Revolution Derailed Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2015 hardcover

June Fourth: The Tiananmen Protests and Beijing Massacre of 1989
8o, trade paperback, The Tiananmen protests and Beijing massacre of 1989 were a major turning point in recent Chinese history. In this new analysis of 1989, Jeremy Brown tells the vivid stories of participants and victims, exploring the nationwide scope of the democracy movement and the brutal crackdown that crushed it. At each critical juncture in the spring of 1989, demonstrators and decision makers agonized over difficult choices and saw how events could have unfolded differently. The alternative paths that participants imagined confirm that bloodshed was neither inevitable nor necessary. Using a wide range of previously untapped sources and examining how ordinary citizens throughout China experienced the crackdown after the massacre, this ambitious social history sheds fresh light on events that continue to reverberate in China to this day.

Dilemmas of Victory: The Early Years of the People's Republic of China
8vo, br. ed, pp.462. This illuminating work examines the social, cultural, political, and economic dimensions of the Communist takeover of China. Instead of dwelling on elite politics and policy-making processes, Dilemmas of Victory seeks to understand how the 1949-1953 period was experienced by various groups, including industrialists, filmmakers, ethnic minorities, educators, rural midwives, philanthropists, stand-up comics, and scientists. A stellar group of authors that includes Frederic Wakeman, Elizabeth Perry, Sherman Cochran, Perry Link, Joseph Esherick, and Chen Jian shows that the Communists sometimes achieved a remarkably smooth takeover, yet at other times appeared shockingly incompetent. Shanghai and Beijing experienced it in ways that differed dramatically from Xinjiang, Tibet, and Dalian. Out of necessity, the new regime often showed restraint and flexibility, courting the influential and educated. Furthermore, many policies of the old Nationalist regime were quietly embraced by the new Communist rulers. Based on previously unseen archival documents as well as oral histories, these lively, readable essays provide the fullest picture to date of the early years of the People's Republic, which were far more pluralistic, diverse, and hopeful than the Maoist decades that followed.
