Modern Chinese History (2012 Edition - EPUB)
The period between 1840 and 1949 was a tumultuous one for China. The last Qing Emperor officially abdicated the throne in 1912 and the years following that were full of trials and tribulations. Sun Yat-sen was an important figure who had a major role in shaping China's modern history. There were also many other players in the fight for political power in China. Yuan Shikai, the Kuomintang (KMT) and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) were just some of them. This engaging book provides readers with descriptive articles and information on key figures and events that occurred in China from 1840 to 1949. Understanding the impact they had on China's modern history will give readers a better grasp of China's politics today.
The Unfinished Revolution
The Unfinished Revolution is a superb new biography of Sun Yat-sen, whose life, like the confusion of his time, is not easy to interpret. His political career was marked mostly by setbacks, yet he became a cult figure in China after his death. Today he is the only 20th-century Chinese leader to be widely revered on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. In contrast, many Western historians see little in his ideas or deeds to warrant such high esteem. This book presents the most balanced account of Sun to date, one that situates him within the historical events and intellectual climate of his time. Born in the shadow of the Opium War, the young Sun saw China repeatedly humiliated in clashes with fo...
Digitalization and Management Innovation
The digital era has brought about important changes that continue to affect all our lives. Efficient management and storage of digital information has become crucial, as has the ability to access that information quickly and efficiently, and priorities are to allow for the saving of digital data in many different ways, and to avoid the loss of information in the event of a malfunction. This book presents the 65 papers presented at DMI2022, the first in the new annual conference series Digitalization and Management Innovation (DMI), held as a hybrid event in Beijing, China, on 26 November 2022. A total of 190 submissions were received for the conference, and the papers presented here were sel...
Fuzzy Systems and Data Mining IX
Fuzzy systems and data mining are indispensible aspects of the digital technology on which we now all depend. Fuzzy logic is intrinsic to applications in the electrical, chemical and engineering industries, and also in the fields of management and environmental issues. Data mining is indispensible in dealing with big data, massive data, and scalable, parallel and distributed algorithms. This book presents the proceedings of FSDM 2023, the 9th International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Data Mining, held from 10-13 November 2023 as a hybrid event, with some participants attending in Chongqing, China, and others online. The conference focuses on four main areas: fuzzy theory, algorithms and ...
External Intervention and the Politics of State Formation
This book explores ways foreign intervention and external rivalries can affect the institutionalization of governance in weak states. When sufficiently competitive, foreign rivalries in a weak state can actually foster the political centralization, territoriality and autonomy associated with state sovereignty. This counterintuitive finding comes from studying the collective effects of foreign contestation over a weak state as informed by changes in the expected opportunity cost of intervention for outside actors. When interveners associate high opportunity costs with intervention, they bolster sovereign statehood as a next best alternative to their worst fear - domination of that polity by adversaries. Sovereign statehood develops if foreign actors concurrently and consistently behave this way toward a weak state. This book evaluates that argument against three 'least likely' cases - China, Indonesia and Thailand between the late nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries.
Advances in Computer Communication and Computational Sciences
The book includes the insights that reflect ‘Advances in Computer and Computational Sciences’ from upcoming researchers and leading academicians across the globe. It contains the high-quality peer-reviewed papers of ‘International Conference on Computer, Communication and Computational Sciences (IC4S 2017), held during 11–12 October, 2017 in Thailand. These papers are arranged in the form of chapters. The content of this book is divided into two volumes that cover variety of topics such as intelligent hardware and software design, advanced communications, intelligent computing techniques, intelligent image processing, and web and informatics. This book helps the perspective readers’ from computer industry and academia to derive the advances of next generation computer and communication technology and shape them into real life applications.
