Böcker av Klaus Muhlhahn

Klaus Muhlhahn situates modern China in the nation's long, dynamic tradition of overcoming adversity and weakness through creative adaptation-a legacy of crisis and recovery that is apparent today in China's triumphs but also in its most worrisome trends. Muhlhahn's panoramic survey rewrites the history of modern China for a new generation.

Muhlhahn offers a comprehensive examination of the criminal justice system in modern China, an institution deeply rooted in politics, society, and culture. Based on unprecedented research in Chinese archives and incorporating prisoner testimonies, witness reports, and interviews, this book is essential reading for understanding modern China.
