內容簡介

內容簡介 This book explores the development of late-nineteenth-century study societies in China against the context of the decline of the imperial Qing government and its control on ideological production, widespread social unrest, and intrusions by Western imperialist states. The author uncovers the history of civil society activism in China by examining the study societies in Shanghai, Beijing, and Hunan, which were organized around the goal of promoting and defending the Confucian religion. Illustrating a facet of the civil society that emerged in China as a reaction to the influences of Christianity, the modernization of Confucianism, and nationalist state formation, this study extends understanding of the unique and complex processes of Chinese political and cultural modernization in ways that differed from that of Western societies. This book explores the development of study societies in late nineteenth-century China in the context of the decline of the Qing government, widespread social unrest, and intrusions by Western states. Chen Hon Fai uncovers the history of civil society activism by examining societies organized around promoting and defending Confucianism.
