Funded Activity Summary

Colonial Cosmopolitanism and Chinese Modernity: German Economic and Cultural Adventurers in China 1870-1937. The project will assist in increasing Australia's knowledge base about both colonialism in general and social change in China; and will add to Australia's international reputation as a major centre of research on China. It will increasing understandings of the important histories of China's interactions with the outside world, lessons that will spill over into Australia's history, current and future interactions with China. In the process the project challenges the myth of an isolated, xenophobic 'China as Middle Kingdom' by exploring histories of China's productive interactions with major economic powers, such as Germany.
