Shanghai Journal by Neale Hunter
This reissue comes just as scholars and commentators, both Chinese and Western, are taking a new interest in China's recent political history, and the role of the Cultural Revolution. Neale Hunter was one of the few Westerners resident in Shanghai during the Cultural Revolution, and his book, first published in 1969, was the first full-length account of it to be written by a foreign observer. The book is based on his own first-hand experience, as well as important primary sources such as wall-posters, and is illustrated with photographs taken by the author. Neale Hunter has written a new introduction for this edition, in which he reviews events since the Cultural Revolution, and sets forth his own much-altered views of China. The introduction also contains fascinating experts from the `criticism and self-criticism session' on the book which the author underwent in Shanghai in the early 1970s. Readership: Chinese and Western researchers and general readers.| SKU | Unavailable |
