Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This volume is a book of reflections and encounters about the region that the Chinese knew as Nanyang. The essays in it look back at the years of uncertainty after the end of World War II and explore the period largely through images of mixed heritages in Malaysia and Singapore.

Joining the Modern World: Inside and Outside China
ISBN: 9789810244880 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Throughout the 20th century, all kinds of Chinese people tried to be "modern". At the same time, the standards of modernity have been set elsewhere and they always seem to be higher than what has been achieved. That makes most of the Chinese work harder, but some may well wonder if standards rise so that China will always get a poor report card at the end of each year. The ongoing drama of Chinese people seeking to be modern has been enacted in different parts of the world. There are interesting differences among these Chinese, depending on where they have been living. The general trend,...

This is the first book to focus explicitly on how China's rise as a major economic and political actor has affected societies in Southeast Asia. It examines how Chinese investors, workers, tourists, bureaucrats, longtime residents, and adventurers interact throughout Southeast Asia.
