Quest for power : European imperialism and the making of Chinese statecraft
Stephen R. Halsey
China’s late-imperial history has been framed as a long coda of decline, played out during the Qing dynasty. Reappraising this narrative, Stephen Halsey traces the origins of China’s current great-power status to this so-called decadent era, when threats of war with European and Japanese empires triggered innovative state-building and statecraft.
