A discussion of protest in China, spanning the Imperial, Republic and Communist eras. It introduces Chinese patterns and provides a forum to consider ways in which contentious politics in China might serve to reinforce, refine or reshape theories derived from western cases.

This is a comprehensive study on the social history of China during the first half of the 20th century. It draws on abundant sources and studies which have appeared in the People's Republic of China since the early 1980sand which have not been systematically used in Western historiography.
