Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"...Frontier Passages presents a fascinating, persuasive and innovative account of a somewhat neglected dimension of modern Chinese and CCP history....[It] is a rigorous and interesting scholarly work that presents a number of thought-provoking arguments regarding the CCP's historical development and the role of ethnopolitics in modern Chinese history that would be of interest to specialists, students, and general readers alike." -- <I>Asian Studies Review</I> "This book makes good use of Communist Party documents recently made available and is a solid piece of scholarly work on a neglected aspect of the rise of Chinese Communism. It is a welcome addition to the burgeoning literature on the Chinese Communist Revolution." -- <I>International History Review</i> " . . . The book is a significant contribution to our understanding of Chinese ethnopolitics." -- <I>The Journal of Chinese Political Science</I> "This spare and elegant study is a singular contribution to the history of the Chinese Communist Party in particular and modern Chinese history more broadly speaking, in an area that has been relatively neglected by Western historical scholarship. Using an impressive array of Chinese documentary evidence, and grounding his work in the best recent scholarship on nationalism and ethnopolitics, Liu has focused on a dimension of Chinese Communist history that is too often overlooked, namely, the ethnopolitical dimension of the CCP's rise to power." -- Steven I. Levine * University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill * "This spare and elegant study is a singular contribution to the history of the Chinese Communist Party in particular and modern Chinese history more broadly speaking. . . .
