HIST 272 - Revolutionary Movements in Modern China

Lower Division

The course begins in the final years of China’s last dynasty, the Qing (Manchu) Dynasty, and ends with the current conundrum of contesting interpretations of the “one China policy” in the PRC and Taiwan. Through an examination of rebellions, revolts, uprisings, revolutions and protest movements, this class introduces students to one of the most tumultuous eras of Chinese history and the social, cultural, environmental, political, and economic foundations of modern China.
